The main entrance to Eslington Park. Pevsner says all the architectural approaches to the house were built in 1858 by the first Baron Ravensworth. However, the bridge, which carries the drive over the River Aln, is dated 1872. The gate piers have urn and obelisk finials. Grade II listed. A mighty beech stands to the fore.
