1876-7. Architect G E Street. Brick gatepiers with horizontal rustication,
ashlar plinths, cornices, applied pediments, and ashlar ball finials.
Piers either side of gates are paired, and linked by round arches with
moulded voussoirs, modillion cornices and blocking courses. Other piers
are single and are crowned by ashlar pediments alone. Brick dwarf wall
with ashlar coping to railings. Elaborate wrought iron gates and railings.
All G E Street's work at Marlborough College shows a remarkable mixture of Gothic, Romanesque and Baroque motifs.
C House, B House, The Museum Block, The Arcade, The Bradleian Building,
The North Block, the Porter's Lodge, gates and railings, the Chapel, and A
House form a group.
