What is recorded here
Cast-iron gateway, built c. 1880, comprising cast-iron gate piers capped by decorative fleur-de-lis finials, cast-iron double gates with fleuron finials, pedestrian cast-iron gates to north and south, flanked by ashlar limestone quadrant walls forming splayed entrance, random rubble stone walling with soldier coping forming boundary to perimeter of site. Gate is situated to east of road-way giving access into Greenmount Lodge.
This appealing gateway forms an elegant formal entranceway into the Coolestown Demesne and Greenmount Lodge. The stone walling exhibits high quality stone masonry while the cast-iron piers and gates with their fine decoration attest to the standard of craftsmanship at the time of casting.
