Description
The entrance gates, doors, piers, and attached quadrants of wall to Watermoor House were built in 1827 by William Jay for Joseph Mullings. The piers and walls are made of limestone ashlar and coursed squared limestone, while the gates and door panels are crafted from wrought and cast iron. The pair of gates stands approximately 3 meters high and features waterlily tops on the bars and dog bars, with a horizontal cast-iron decorative panel in the center. The flanking ashlar gate piers have recessed corners and a deep plinth, adorned with an anthemion and palmette frieze, an enriched moulded cornice, and a stepped cap topped with a ball finial. The sections of straight wall on either side each contain a door divided into four vertical panels by applied moulding, set in a plain reveal, with a deep plinth, moulded cornice, and a parapet featuring a cast-iron panel above the door. The flanking quadrants of wall are constructed from coursed squared limestone with ashlar coping.
