Entrance Gates, Lamps and Lodges to Stoke Park

The entrance gates, lamps, and lodges to Stoke Park were built around 1800, likely designed by James Wyatt. This symmetrical arrangement includes gates, piers, quadrant railing screens, curtain walls, and two lodges. The wrought iron carriage gate is flanked by smaller pedestrian gates. Each tall stucco pier features a pair of detached Greek Doric columns that support an entablature topped with a stucco demi-lion rampant. The quadrant screens are made of wrought iron, and the curtain walls each have a cast iron gate with a central oval panel displaying a bas relief of two busts in profile. The two lodges face each other and are one storey high with stuccoed slate roofs and chimney stacks on the ridge. The road elevation of each lodge has one sash window set in a round-headed panel, flanked by niches with oblong panels above. The drive elevation features a Doric porch with one sash window on each side, each with a panel above. The right-hand lodge has glazing bars, while the left-hand lodge does not. Between the lodges and the gate piers are two cast iron lamps mounted on truncated Doric columns.
