These are the gates to the so called Duke's Drive near the Overleigh roundabout. The drive used to provide access to Eaton Hall, the home of the Duke of Westminster, however, the A55 cut through the drive with a deep cutting. Nowadays the drive is open to the public to walk or cycle, and it provides a link to the village of Eccleston and also to the Chester Business Park. The lodge on the left can be seen at Image
