Description
SK 9450-9550 FULBECK CLIFF ROAD (west) 7/71 Gates of Fulbeck Hall G.V. II* Gates to Fulbeck Hall. 1733. Coursed limestone rubble, ashlar and wrought iron. Gate of 2 leaves with ramped side screens and elaborate overthrow. Side screens rest on dwarf walls with plain copings. The piers are square in plan with repousse capitals. The overthrow has much scrollwork enriched with grotesques and oak leaf sprays supporting the bull's head crest and arms of Sir Francis Fane and his wife Elizabeth. The design is clearly influenced by the Frenchman Tijou, and could be the work of either John Warren of Cambridge (c/f Belton gates) or else of Edward Nutt, who made similar gates at Grimsthorpe Castle in 1730. Listing NGR: SK9488650501
