This was the entrance to one of three free public car parks for Kenwood, and the first to close entirely, as seen by the presence of the gate. The second closure was the car park next to the main house which was accessed through the main entrance and along a system of narrow one way roads. The third and final main car park was left and then began charging, around £1 an hour in 2012. Of course this results in many people using the surrounding roads as at present it is still free to park in the area.
