Purpose

Design for the east gate on St Neot's Road (now the B645), executed with minor alterations, 1764 (1)

Notes

This design, executed with minor alterations, without the ornamental roundels on the piers and with different ironwork gates, for the east gate on St Neot's Road (now the B645). It remains in situ in good condition. The design of this gateway is as complimentary to Vanbrugh's robust refacing of the house as is Adam's west gate on the Kimbolton High Street (Adam volume 30/143).

A duplicate of this drawing was sold at Sotheby's in 1987.
