8/75 Gate piers and railings at
Wigan Lodge to Duxbury Park

- of gates.

GV II


Stone gate piers, probably early C19, with iron gates and railings

fluted sides and plain stepped capitals bearing unusual finials of
horizontal 2/3 - cylindrical form, fluted over the heads, with moulded
circular fares; a pair each side of gate, and one at each end of
railings. Low iron gates with horizontally-compressed criss-cross bars,
Greek Key margins and ramped top rails, hung on matching iron posts
(one with urn finial) linked by short matching railing to the inner of
each pair of stone piers; double-tiered boundary railings with fleur-de-lys
heads extend in quadrant arcs c.30m to either side to meet road.
