What is recorded here
Gateway, c.1870, comprising pair of cast-iron open work piers with cast-iron gates and curved railings having ‘Fleur-de-Lys’ finials.
This gateway is an attractive feature on the streetscape of Drogheda Street and conveys the opulence of Togher House to the passer-by – the gateway is one of a pair of gateways in close proximity, the other example providing an entrance to Kilrue (House) to south-east (11816073/KD-26-16-73). The gates and railings are fine examples of early surviving decorative cast-iron work.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
