Greystoke garden gate


This gate was found in a skip a number of years ago, it has since been in residence at Greystoke cycle cafe in Cumbria. Whilst i was up there doing a course last week we were wandering around the garden (with Annie, the Owner) and we came across this delightful little gate. It has some lovely little details such as the fire welded scrolls along the mid rail, a latch (minus the pull handle which runs through the arch and the top rail.) All the tenons are nice and tight in their frames and apart from some bent rails is in fantastic condition for its age. So, needless to say it came back in the van with us and we will attempt to restore it to its former glory!
