What is recorded here

Main entrance gates serving Moydrum Castle (15402917), erected c.1812. Only the northern side of these gates now survives, comprising a pair of coursed rubble stone gate piers (on square-plan) having ashlar limestone plinth blocks and ashlar limestone coping over. Moulded cornice survives to the pier to the north. Piers linked by a low ashlar plinth low having a central wrought-iron pedestrian gate flanked by wrought-iron railings to either side. Sections of former estate wall runs away to the north. Road-fronted to the west of Moydrum Castle (15402917) and to the east of Athlone.

The remains of the former main entrance gates serving Moydrum Castle (15402917). These gates are well-built and retain some finely moulded ashlar work. The quality of design suggests the hand of Sir Richard Morrison, the architect of Moydrum Castle itself. It forms part of a group of structures associated with this once great estate and now acts as an interesting historical fragment, adding an attractive element to its rural location.
