Garden Gates, Railings And Walls To Fenton House

The garden gates, railings, and walls at Fenton House date from the late 18th century and include elements from the 17th and 18th centuries. The east gate features a late 18th-century wrought-iron design with openwork box piers that have torch flambe piers and an overthrow with a Windsor type lantern. This gate is flanked by attached railings on low brick walls capped with stone. The south gate is a 20th-century replica of the original wrought-iron gate from 1707, inscribed with "JAG" for Joshua Gee, and is positioned between brick piers topped with stone balls. It has attached flanking cast-iron railings with urn finials. The garden walls are constructed of brown brick and have undergone alterations, with the north side featuring a buttressed terrace that includes stone steps and cast-iron railings.
