Item Details

An original Georgian period wrought iron garden gate, circa 1820, handcrafted with arrowhead finials and simple scrolls. Over 200 years old, this antique side gate has stood the test of time, still fitted with its original latch and parts of its original hinges. It will make a beautiful addition to a traditional English garden or cottage courtyard.


If looking for a pair of side gates, we are also selling an almost identical gate under stock no. 35627.


Wrought Iron Garden Gates


Gates and ironwork made from wrought iron have stood the test of time. This traditional method of craftsmanship sees the metal heated to a high temperature and then hammered into shape by a blacksmith’s hand, creating a robust and durable finish. The more wrought iron is worked, the stronger it becomes, making some of the most ornate antique gates some of the strongest. Large scale commercial production of wrought iron products ended in the mid 1970s due to the expensive and time-consuming nature of blacksmithing, making wrought iron gates true antiques, showcasing talented craftsmanship of the past.
