Description
The entrance gates at the south-west entrance to Battersea Park were built around 1891 for the London County Council. The outer pedestrian gateways are made of Portland stone and feature an Arts and Crafts style. They have a nowy-headed coping and a floating cornice above a tall keystone that is adorned with a carved Art Nouveau style female head. A moulded stone architrave frames the semi-circular arched doorway. The gates include wrought-iron pedestrian gates and ramped carriage gates, which are decorated with scrolled ironwork on the upper panels and spear finials. Flanking wrought-iron screen walls ramp up to the pedestrian gates. This entrance is one of four designed by James Pennethorne in the 1850s for Battersea Park.
