What is recorded here
Gates in Wilkinstown are covered in elaborate iron flowers. Bring home a bouquet like that after forgetting an anniversary and you're in fresh trouble: ‘So you remembered to order a foundry casting, but you couldn't remember Thursday?’
Cast-iron railings and gates, c.1880. Comprising of a pair of gate piers with double gates, flanked by railings, which are terminated by a pair of piers.
These gates demonstrate interesting and intricate cast-iron techniques, which are clearly the work of a skilled craftsman. The anthemion and fleur-de-lis motifs are particularly well executed. They create an imposing entrance and are an interesting roadside feature.
