What is recorded here

Freestanding concrete gateway, built c. 1940, constructed as a classical triumphal arch, with the effect of ashlar masonry, forming a tripartite arrangement reminiscent of the John Russell gate to the People's Park (Pery Square). This forms the main entrance to O'Brien's Park. Central round-arched opening within elevation having parapet entablature, repeated at lower flanking walls which are punctuated by round-arch pedestrian gateways. Steel gates to all openings. Set back from road, flanked by curved cast-iron railings on concrete plinth wall.
