Curving cut-stone plinth walls terminated by similar piers, but without fan detail and panelling. Ornate cast-iron railings and similar gates. Sets of four hexagonal profile stone wheel guards to each side of entrance gates.

This ornate entrance gateway is a significant aesthetic feature in the town of Cahir. It is well maintained and in its original context. Fine craftsmanship is apparent in the masonry and the metalwork of the elaborate piers and cast-iron gates and railings.
