Description

This structure consists of a set of three gate piers, flanking walls, and terminal piers, located 200 meters to the northeast of Michaelstow House. Built in 1869, it is made of granite and granite ashlar. There are two gate piers for the main drive and an additional pier for a separate pedestrian entrance, accompanied by flanking quadrant walls and terminal piers.

The tall, square-plan granite monolith gate piers feature moulded bases and cornices, each topped with large urns. The granite ashlar flanking quadrant walls have moulded granite coping and end with granite monolith terminal piers that match the design of the gate piers. The entrance is fitted with contemporary iron gates that have ramped rails and twisted iron uprights resting on the moulded coping of the quadrant walls; these gates likely originally had a chain link, which has since been removed. This entrance serves Tregenna House, now known as Michaelstow House, which was built for William Hocken in 1869.
