WESTON LANE (south side)
East gates, gate piers, railings and outer piers to Weston Hall
II
Gates, gate piers, railings and main piers. Probably mid C18 main piers, mid-late C19 gates and railings, for the Vavasour family of Weston Hall (qv).
Wrought-iron gates of two leaves attached to piers which are linked by railings to the main outer piers of ashlar and magnesian limestone.
Gates and railings; approximately 2 metres high, bars with scrolled finials, scroll decoration to borders, flower motif enclosed by circles below lock bar level. Elaborate open-work gate piers with scroll and flower motifs, approximately 3.5 metres high, square in section with a central pilaster strip to each face, cyma-moulded entablature and a deep cornice surmounted by gadrooned urns.
The much-weathered urns are similar to those in the niches of the Banqueting House (qv), suggesting that there was a second pair of gate piers on the estate, possibly at the crossing of the Wharfe to the south.
