Description
Gateway to former country house, comprising vehicular entrance flanked by pedestrian entrances. Ashlar limestone piers with raised panels and carved caps and detailing to jambs. Ornate wrought- and cast-iron gates and railings with ashlar plinths and ashlar flanking walls.
Appraisal
These ornate gates suggest the architectural significance of the now demolished Templemore Abbey country house. A high degree of craftsmanship is evident in the ashlar stonework and the decorative gates and railings.
