Description
Gateway, erected c.1860, comprising double-leaf cast-iron vehicular gate having ornate cast-iron piers connecting to curving wrought-iron railings. Set at entrance to Rathville House.
Appraisal
This ornate nineteenth-century entrance to Rathville House exhibits fine craftsmanship in the decorative ironwork. Unusually, the fine stonework exhibited in the main house and outbuildings is not copied here and cast-iron piers are used instead.
