The Grade I Listed Gatehouse to Nottingham Castle. In Nottingham, Nottinghamshire.
The Gatehouse, outerbridge and adjoining gateway were built between 1252-1255 for Henry III. It was altered in the mid 16th century, slighted 1651 and restored 1908. The parapet, string course and cross casement windows, are all early 20the Century.
When the castle itself was restored in 1875 the gatehouse of the medieval castle and much of the walling of the outer bailey were retained as a garden wall for the re-opened grounds. However, the northernmost part of the outer bailey was lost when an approach road was constructed in the 1830s for the development of The Park Estate on the former deer park.
