What is recorded here
Gateway, extant 1838, on a symmetrical plan comprising pair of limestone ashlar piers on chamfered plinths having "Cavetto"-detailed cornices below shallow pyramidal capping supporting spear head-detailed cast-iron double gates with limestone ashlar outer piers on benchmark-inscribed chamfered plinths having "Cavetto"-detailed cornices below shallow pyramidal capping. Now disused. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Annefield House.
A gateway making a pleasing visual statement in a sylvan setting at the entrance on to the grounds of the Annefield House estate: meanwhile, a discreet benchmark remains of additional interest for the connections with cartography and the preparation of maps by the Ordnance Survey (established 1824).
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
