Description
The Triumphal Arch is a Grade I gatehouse completed around 1760. It was built by Matthew Brettingham, based on a design attributed to William Kent. The structure is made of gault brick with flint rustication and stone dressings, featuring slated and lead-covered roofs. The facade has a tripartite arrangement with one wide and two narrow arched openings, each topped by plain pediments. Inside the arches, there are groined brick vaults. A string course runs at the impost level of the main arch, and there are shaped buttresses on the east and west sides of the central block. The arch is adorned with a dentilled cornice and tripartite lunette windows beneath the central pediment, with ball finials on the side wing pediments.
