A wrought iron
gate that provides a glimpse of the garden beyond, always gives an inviting
appeal to any home. Cannock Gates has just announced its end of season sale with
at least 10% off its gates.
Ironwork first became popular amongst the wealthier classes in the late 17th century.
As cheaper materials such as cast iron became available the use of iron railings,
balconies and gates was wide spread by the 20th century.
Our choice here at Period Home and Garden is the Gothic Gate pictured above, with its simple lines and arched
top, we think it would look fantastic with a variegated ivy trailing close-by. However,
if you prefer more elaborate gates, then Cannock has a wide selection of these too.
Gothic 6' Side Gate priced at £65.00 (not including sale discount). For more information
