What is recorded here

Gateway, c.1845, comprising pair of sandstone ashlar piers having gabled capping, decorative wrought iron double gates having finials, wrought iron flanking pedestrian gates having finials, sandstone ashlar outer piers with gabled capping, and sections of sandstone ashlar curved flanking walls extending to sandstone ashlar terminating piers having gabled capping, and sections of random rubble flanking boundary walls to perimeter of site. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Bon Sauveur Convent.
A well-appointed gateway incorporating fine sandstone ashlar, attesting to high quality stone masonry, together with early-surviving decorative wrought iron gates, which enhance the artistic design quality of the composition. The gateway, together with the associated gate lodge (22903006/WD-30-06), forms an important element of the Bon Sauveur Convent estate, and contributes to the visual appeal of the street scene.
