Description
The gates, piers, steps, and balustrade wall on the north side of the Dutch Garden at St. Fagans Castle are constructed from stone with a capping. The wall features a flight of six stone steps that ascend to a pair of exquisite wrought iron gates with an overthrow. These gates are adorned with intricate motifs of a vine plant, including its leaves, fruit, and tendrils, and have iron scrolls incorporated within the double top, lock, and bottom rails. The gates are flanked by ashlar gate piers that also have capping and ball finials. The steps leading down from the gates are bordered by arcaded balustrades with moulded coping, which end in square piers at the bottom. The western side of the garden is bordered by the 'Battlement Walk,' which is listed separately.
