ENTRANCE GATE PIERS AND WALL TO EAST OF CUMBERLAND INFIRMARY - List Entry
-
Description
Gate piers and wall. Probably early 1930s. Brick wall partly on chamfered plinth (all dressings of calciferous sandstone) with stone cornice and coping; tall squared piers with stepped caps and urn finials; patterned cast- and wrought-iron work between piers originally supported gate (now missing). Wall right of the gate is higher and links with main hospital building, with an additional pedestrian gate; the left wall starts at same height but is stepped down to a lower level. Previously there was an entrance with a long drive from Newtown Road: this new entrance would seem to be part of the 1930s work when an extra storey was added to the main building..... -
