What is recorded here
Entrance gates to Coorheen House, erected c.1860, comprising decorative double-leaf cast-iron vehicular gate with cut limestone piers having caps and plinths, with flanking limestone ashlar plinth walls with similar cast-iron railings terminating in similar piers. Hinged cast-iron gate stop on dressed limestone mount. Flanked by rubble limestone boundary walls.
This gateway presents a pleasing introduction to Coorheen House. The quality of decorative cast-iron work is evident, as is the fine stone cutting of the piers and plinth walls. It presents an interesting and ornate roadside feature.
