Dulwich Tollgate from the north

Dating from 1789, this is the last remaining tollgate in London.
This is a private road belonging to the Dulwich Estate.
The toll booth is not as old as it may appear as it dates from 1995.
A Dulwich Society newsletter states “The charming little toll-booth in College Road was designed by Dulwich Society member Don Adie in 1995 to comply with Health & Safety requirements which found the original method of toll collection from the manually opened gate, placed the collector in danger from passing traffic, the elements and violent robbery.”
