What is recorded here

Pair of painted square-profile monolith limestone piers, built c. 1890. Comprising carved rounded caps with recessed panels, recessed panels to piers and acanthus-headed cast-iron railings terminating in carved limestone piers.
These imposing and ornate gates, formerly an entrance to Plassey House, are well designed and executed. The monolith piers are finely carved, forming a strong focal point, which is complimented by the ornate cast-iron gates with acanthus leaf motifs. They provide important context to the locality and form an attractive roadside feature.
