Description
The South Gates to Lord Wandsworth College were built around 1926, designed by Guy Dawber. They are made of red brick with stone dressings, featuring timber and iron gates.
These gates are part of the secondary phase of the college's core and serve as the main entrance from the southern playing fields. They align with the Engineering Block, now known as the Humanities Block, to the north. The structure includes four brick gate piers, each with stone plinths and caps. The outer pair of piers are smaller and topped with stone orb finials, while the central piers have recessed corners and stone acorn finials. Between the piers are three low-set gates with timber frames, braces, and iron bars, straps, and fixings, which have been restored. The central arched gate serves as a carriage entrance and is flanked by two narrow gates.
