Repositioned, 1952. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Catholic Church of Our Lady of Sorrows.
A gateway reclaimed from the Bloomfield House estate making a pleasing visual statement in a sylvan street scene at the entrance on to the grounds of the Catholic Church of Our Lady of Sorrows (cf. 31311016). NOTE: An identical gateway was similarly repurposed (1962) at the Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception (1962) in Roundfort (see 31311902).
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
