What is recorded here

Field gates, erected c.1860, comprising a pair of rendered gate piers, on square-plan having cut stone capstones, supporting a pair of wrought-iron double gates with decorative finials and curled clasps. Located to the southeast of Horseleap, adjacent to main Dublin to Galway road and to the south of Meldrum House (15403701).
An appealing pair of decorative pair of vernacular wrought-iron double gates, which form an unusually fine entrance to a field/agricultural land. These wrought-iron gates are very similar in appearance to a pair located to the south (15403709), suggesting that they may have being crafted by the same hand and, perhaps, gave access to land in the same ownership. These simple gates and piers are an appealing feature in the rural landscape to the southeast of Horseleap, adding attractive incident along the main Dublin to Galway road.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
