Description

The boundary railings, gate piers, and gates to Ilsington House are likely from the early 19th century. They feature three square, panelled cast iron piers topped with projecting pyramidal caps. There is one single gate and one pair of gates, both designed with closely spaced uprights that have spearhead finials. To the right of the gates, iron railings of a similar design extend across the front of No. 7. To the left of the gate, the railings continue along the road boundary for approximately 40 meters.
