Description
The gate piers and gates in the garden at The Courts date from the early 20th century. They feature plain ashlar gate piers topped with urn finials, and the double gates are made of wrought iron, showcasing floral motifs and elaborate cresting. These elements were likely installed by Sir George Hastings, who purchased The Courts around 1900.
