Carriage and foot gates, railings and piers forming the
north-eastern boundary to the forecourt of The King's Manor
(qv). Probably c1900. Gates and railings of cast and
wrought-iron on low moulded stone wall with stone piers at
each end. Railings are square sectioned and incorporate open
panels of scrollwork with coupled volutes and twists as
finials: gate piers are similar but taller. Piers at each end
are square on plan, with trefoil-headed sunk-panelled sides
and moulded cornices beneath flat caps. Piers incorporate
pendant armorial shields on two faces, all badly defaced
except for one bearing a sun in splendour adjacent to The City
Art Gallery (qv).
