What is recorded here
Gateway, extant 1903, on a symmetrical plan comprising pair of rusticated rendered red brick Running bond piers on moulded cushion courses on plinths having stringcourses below thumbnail beaded cornices. Quay fronted with sections of limestone flagged paviours.
A gateway not only making a pleasing visual statement in Crescent Quay, but also surviving as an interesting relic of a temple-like façade erected by Jasper William Walsh (d. 1895), 'Timber Merchant of Wexford' (Bassett 1885, 34).
