Ladderstile Ride in snow
Looking SE from near Ladderstile Gate towards Kingston Hill, some 36 hours after the first substantial snowfall of the winter. Ladderstile Gate, once known as Coombe Gate, is one of Richmond Park's pedestrian gates. The name derives from a step-ladder which gave access over the Park wall until replaced by a conventional gate in or about 1885. (Historical information from Collenette's book, 'A History of Richmond Park').

Ladderstile Ride
The 'ride' part of this road name presumably refers to its use as an entrance to Richmond Park for horse riders. But as the signpost shows, it now only has public footpath status. The 'ladderstile' at the park entrance has been replaced at some time by a tall metal gate.
