The Gates at Lodge Park

Fancy gateway to this unusual National Trust place. Built for one John "Crump" Dutton as a sort of grandstand for watching deer coursing and racing, it was not intended as a residence. It is the only surviving example in the country.
Nice to hear of a toff being called Crump. It shows a pleasant lack of gravitas.
