A handsome entrance gateway serving New Forest House (15403824). The gate piers are well-built using fine ashlar limestone masonry while the associated gates are a good example of early wrought-iron work. The robustly constructed estate wall, running away to the east and west, makes a pleasing visual statement in the landscape to the west of Tyrrellspass. The ruins of the attendant gate lodge complete the setting.
