Piers support a pair of wrought-iron bar gates and are flanked to the north and south by sections of rendered quadrant walling. Located to the east of Kilbride House and to the northwest of Rochfortbridge.
An appealing and unusual gateway associated with Kilbride House (15403307), which retains its early form and character. The design of this gateway is unusual in that it has both Gothic Revival and Classical elements, while the simple wrought-iron bar gates have a distinctly vernacular feel.
