Description

Iron railings and gate at Saxby, dating from the early 19th century, feature an ashlar plinth with iron railings and a gate. The railings run across the front of Saxby, with a gateway on the right and a return section of railings on the left. The railings are designed with spiked dog bars and arrowhead finials, supported by fluted standards topped with vase finials. The gate matches this style, but includes wavy dog bars.
