What is recorded here

Gateway, extant 1937, on a symmetrical plan comprising pair of rusticated granite ashlar piers on moulded cushion courses on plinths having "Cyma Recta"- or "Cyma Reversa"-detailed cornices below ovoid finial-topped capping supporting spear head-detailed wrought iron double gates. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Marlay House.

A gateway forming part of a self-contained group alongside an adjacent gate lodge (see 60220020) with the resulting ensemble not only making a pleasing visual statement in a suburban street scene at an entrance on to the grounds of the Marlay House estate, but also illustrating the continued development or "improvement" of the estate in the early twentieth century.

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