NY8183 : Gates near Bellingham
taken 14 years ago, near to Hesleyside, Northumberland, England
Gates near Bellingham
The entrance to Hesleyside, dating from the early C19th. The elaborate wrought-iron gates are flanked by piers, topped by urn finials, which are, in turn, flanked by serpentine walls culminating in square piers. Grade II listed.
A sign nailed to a nearby tree tells us that, "the house has been the home of the Charlton family since 1343", and that, "the family are happy to welcome parties of visitors to the house by prior arrangement".
