Kensington Gardens - New Gates, Bayswater-Road, 1854. Park entrance in London. Gates giving '...access to the pedestrian from the Bayswater-road, almost opposite the new portion called the Craven-hill-estate. These gates are quite plain - the piers are of white brick, with stone cornices, and the railing of the ordinary kind. The gates are, however, a great addition to the appearance as well as usefulness to the road, affording facility of egress to the Gardens, long wanted about that portion of Bayswater and the surrounding neighbourhood'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
