Description

The gate piers and gates to Little Kames, dating from around 1840, are notable features located on the north side of Oriental Road in Sunninghill. The stone piers are topped with cornices and pineapple finials, providing an elegant support for the double wrought-iron gates. These gates, which exhibit a delicate, open leaf pattern, are believed to originate from the late 17th century or early 18th century.
