Description

The forecourt railings, gates, and gate piers located to the west of numbers 24 and 26 Park Row date from the mid-19th century. They feature cast iron railings set on a rounded stone plinth. The design includes tall arrowhead standards alternating with shorter spearheads. The cast iron gates match this pattern and are hung on square stone piers that have moulded plinths and cornices. Additionally, there is another square pier aligned with the two houses, which supports a later cast iron lamp standard.
