πΎππ» The beauty of Eaton Hall ππ»πΎπ»π»π» Historical Buildings On The Eaton Estate ππΎπ¦ β> ππ»The Golden Gatesππ» stand at the eastern end of Belgrave Avenue. The gates with their overthrow, the screens at their sides and the associated wing lodges are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building. The gates stand in front of what was formerly the principal entrance to the forecourt of the hall. The central pair of gates and the adjacent screen railings date from the early 18th century and are by Robert and John Davies of Croes Foel. The further side gates and screens, dating from around 1880, were designed by Alfred Waterhouse and made by Skidmore of Coventry. At the extremities is a pair of lodges, which are also dated around 1880, and by Alfred Waterhouse.
