The plaque at St. Augustine's City Gate. Note the cool celtic knotwork. It reads: "This gated, opened in 1739, provided the only access through the defense line on the north side of Spanish St. Augustine. Royal Engineer Manual de Hita built these coquina pillars in 1808. This tablet was originally erected in 1907 by the National Society of Colonial Dames of America in the State of Florida. It was revised to commemorate the tricentennial of Castillo de San Marcos in 1972." COOL.
