these is stiffened by a scroll bracket anchored in a buttress
on the park side of the wall. Horizontal runners above wall
and just under heads of uprights; shorter spiked uprights
between each full upright. There are 4 gates, the stanchions
of each square in section, with studded bosses and a studded
spear top: gates opposite Nos 11, 14 and 19-20 (qv except

pedestrians; the remaining gate wider, for vehicles.
