East Entrance Gatescreen, Drumbanagher estate, Tandragee Road, Newry, Co.Down, BT35 6TJ

A set of vehicular and pedestrian gates flanked, either side with low rubble stone walls, topped with half round dressed stone copings. Main frontage facing East with a symmetrically arranged central vehicular gateway comprising a pair of elaborately scrolled wrought iron carriage gates flanked by pairs of square, tall, smooth, sandstone cut-stone piers with flat topped projecting, moulded cornice and copings. Horizontal movement between section of stone blocks has distorted the alignment of the pillar. Mounted, either side between each pair of piers is a pedestrian gate of similar design to the carriage gates. The gates are framed in two stages with a lower, short section where the uprights alternate with crossed braces with a central boss and run into a transom section where quatrefoils alternate with the uprights. The uprights continue through the upper section where they have ring decorations and run into another transom, as before, the uprights than finish in ornate foliate/fleur de lys tips alternating with spikes. The pedestrian gates are narrower versions of the main gates and replicate the design. Sections of gate railings missing or twisted, particularly on left hand side. SETTING: The gate screen stands facing East onto the main Poyntzpass - Newry road but set back from it toward the central gateway with a gravel area in front, bordered with random, painted rubble stones and leading to a tarmac driveway beyond the gates.
