GV II

Gate, one of a pair, removed from Priory House, following its demolition mid C19. Early C18, re-erected 1964. Wrought-iron gate with square uprights, scrollwork band, intermediate spears, and shouldered semicircular arched head, with scrollwork and urn fixed side panels, and arched overthrow, with scrollwork, spearheads, leaves and Greek Cross finial. HISTORICAL NOTE: Hertford Priory lay on a site south of the River Lea, and was founded by Ralph de Limesi, one of William I's knights. After the Dissolution Priory House was erected on the site in the C17. It was demolished mid C19, and the gates were reset near Church of All Saints with St John, Queen's Road (qv). The construction of the Hertford Relief Road, Gascoyne Way, in 1964, resulted in their removal and resetting between modern red brick piers, facing each other across the new dual carriageway highway.
