Description
The entrance gate piers and gates located 20 meters south-west of Foley House are late 18th century features made of wrought iron. They consist of a pair of rectangular gates that have closely-spaced vertical bars, with decorative ironwork panels at mid-height. The wrought iron gate piers each have a narrow panel on their faces. An elaborate crown in scrolled wrought iron spans the gateway, adding to its decorative appeal.
