What is recorded here

Gateway, extant 1903, on a symmetrical plan comprising pair of tuck pointed Running bond piers on moulded cushion courses on plinths having cut-granite "Cyma Recta" or "Cyma Reversa" cornices below capping supporting wrought iron double gates with paired tuck pointed Running bond outer piers on moulded cushion courses on plinths having cut-granite "Cyma Recta" or "Cyma Reversa" cornices below capping framing wrought iron gates. Road fronted on a corner site at entrance to grounds of Monart.
A gateway not only making a pleasing visual statement in a sylvan street scene at the entrance on to the grounds of the Monart estate, but also illustrating the continued development or "improvement" of the estate in the nineteenth century.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
