II

Pair of Folding Gates, circa 1896, attributed to Edwin Lutyens, for
1st Duke of Westminster. The Piers are later. Black wrought iron
gates and screens and stone piers. The vertical rails and scrollwork
of the gates represent formalised trees. Narrow, taller, sidescreens
of scrollwork. Square rusticated stone piers with heads of putti on
inner faces. There appear to have been trimmed yew hedges to each
side of the gate screens in 1901, but no piers. Country Life April
20th 1901 (photograph).
