Entrance Gates and Walls to Monksbridge

The entrance gates and walls to Monksbridge date from the 18th and 20th centuries. They are constructed of brown brick with a cement render coping at the front, which serves as a plinth for the 20th-century iron spiked railings. The return walls feature stone coping and older red and brown brick on the southern half, which faces the river. The entrance wall at the front is approximately three feet high and has square newels at both ends. In the center, there are 20th-century wrought iron gates. The right return walls rise to about seven feet high as the ground slopes down, and they are supported by seven buttresses on the lower courses. A pineapple finial is located on the right where the wall curves down to a square gate pier topped with a pyramidal head. There is a short return wall and pier parallel to the street, which features late 18th-century iron railings and paired center gates under scrolled heads, flanked by open standards that provide access to the garden.
