Gateway and Attached Walls Approximately 30 Metres North West of Number 42

The gateway and attached walls, located approximately 30 meters north-west of number 42, date from the mid to late 16th century and were altered around 1830. The walls are constructed of red brick from the mid to late 16th century and feature a moulded stone string course and head corbels near the gateway. The ends of each wall include mid-19th century brickwork, likely indicating the reduction of a larger 16th-century structure. The gateway itself, made of stone ashlar and stuccoed around 1830, has offset diagonal buttresses with gabled tops at the front and chamfered at the rear, along with a parapet that includes a moulded string course. The Tudor-arched doorway features a label mould with carved stops and blank shields in the spandrels at the rear, and a hood mould with head stops over a moulded arch at the front, flanked by a portcullis to the right and a carved flower to the left. Historically, these walls and the gateway were part of the gardens of Cassiobury Park, a large house built in 1554 for the Earls of Essex, which was demolished in 1927.
