Streamstown House

Main entrance gates to Streamstown House (15403143), erected c.1850, comprising a pair of fluted cast-iron gate posts (on circular plan) supporting cast-iron double gates. Gateway flanked to the north and south by sweeps of cast-iron railings on quadrant plan and terminated by dressed limestone gate piers (on square-plan) having cut stone capstones over. Rubble limestone boundary walls run away to the north and south. Located to the east of Streamstown House and to the west of Castletown Geoghegan.

An interesting and elegantly appointed mid nineteenth-century gateway associated with Streamstown House (15403143), which retains its early form and character. The form of these gates suggests that they were added around the same time the porch was added to the main house (c.1850). The high quality cast-iron work to the gate posts and railings creates a fine first impression when entering the grounds of Streamstown House. The dressed limestone gate piers and rubble limestone boundary walls completes the setting of this gateway, which is an appealing feature in the rural landscape to the west of Castletown Geoghegan, adding attractive incident to its pleasant rural location.
