What is recorded here

Gateway, c.1750, comprising pair of limestone ashlar piers with moulded capping, decorative wrought iron double gates, decorative wrought iron flanking pedestrian gates, limestone ashlar outer piers having moulded capping, and sections of limestone ashlar flanking boundary walls to perimeter of site. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Mount Congreve estate.
A well-composed gateway incorporating fine stone work to the piers and boundary walls, together with decorative wrought iron work, which enhances the design quality of the composition. The gateway, together with the attendant gate lodge (22901719/WD-17-19), forms an important element of the Mount Congreve estate, and contributes to the visual appeal of the locality.
