Mount Juliet

Gateway, c.1825, comprising pair of granite ashlar piers with stringcourses supporting friezes having inscribed panels, carved cut-granite cornice capping, iron double gates, iron flanking pedestrian gateways in granite ashlar walls having cut-granite coping, granite ashlar outer piers with stringcourses supporting friezes having inscribed panels, carved cut-granite cornice capping, granite ashlar curved flanking walls with cut-granite coping supporting iron railings, granite ashlar terminating piers with stringcourses supporting friezes having inscribed panels, and carved cut-granite cornice capping. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Mount Juliet.

An elegantly-appointed Classically-detailed gateway displaying particularly fine craftsmanship in notoriously-durable locally-sourced stone: attractive iron work further enhances the aesthetic aspirations of the composition. Forming a neat group with an attendant gate lodge (12402831/KK-28-31) the resulting ensemble makes a positive visual statement at the entrance to the grounds of Mount Juliet.
