Curtain Wall Gateway And Chapel To South West Of Rodborough Fort

The curtain wall, gateway, and chapel located to the southwest of Rodborough Fort were built in 1761, with the chapel likely added around 1870. Constructed from random rock-faced rubble limestone with ashlar dressings, this structure forms three sides of a courtyard adjacent to the house at Rodborough Fort.

The main elevation facing southwest features a large, four-centred arched gateway with plank doors, flanked by a tall square turret on the right and a lower circular turret on the left. This section of the curtain wall has a machicolated and crenellated parapet. To the left, the wall continues to a small square corner turret and then extends northwest, stopping short of the house's northwest facade. A section of the wall on the right faces southeast and connects to the house at its southern corner, incorporating another four-centred arched gateway with double plank doors.

Inside the courtyard, a small chapel runs along the northwest-facing wall, featuring four lancet windows on the side and a larger east window with Decorated tracery. The interior of the chapel has not been inspected. This structure is part of a group that includes the house at Rodborough Fort.
