Description
The arched entry flanking the driveway on the east side of Castle Hall House dates from probably the early 19th century and was repaired in the 20th century. The Castle Hall estate underwent significant improvements between 1804 and 1817 by Mr. Benjamin Rotch, a Quaker from North America who was invited by Charles Greville to settle in Milford. Mr. Rotch transformed "ugly slopes into pretty terraces" and created new land in front of the house, along with other major garden works noted in his daughter's memoirs.
The entry features a split stone arch ring set within a short section of red rubble wall, which is topped with a corbelled parapet. To the right, there is an attached square gatepier that projects forward. The lower sections of the wall extend back to low piers that have pyramidal cappings.
