Description
This is a late 18th-century gateway and attached garden wall and balustrade, built around 1735. It incorporates remnants of a 16th-century wall. The piers are constructed of limestone ashlar and topped with small urn finials. Fine wrought-iron gates, made by Nathaniel Arthur, are set within these piers, featuring an overthrow arch with a cartouche. The wall itself is a mix of brick and limestone rubble, with an ashlar balustrade running along its top. The wall extends south and connects with a 16th-century brick wall which runs along the terrace in front of Redland Court. Balustrades and steps provide access up to the courtyard from the garden. Historically, the wall is a remnant of an Elizabethan house that previously occupied the site. Nathaniel Arthur also made the gates for Redland Chapel.
