Description


PADSTOW PRIDEAUX PLACE, Padstow
SW 9075-9175
8/136 South entrance to Prideaux Place

GV II*

South entrance to Prideaux Place. Circa C18, pre 1758. Slate stone rubble. Square-
on-plan turrets. Semi-circular dressed stone arch to entrance, with crenellations
above, flanked by 2 square crenellated turrets with narrow slits and moulded plinths.
Flanked by high stone rubble walls enclosing garden to south of Prideaux Place (qv).
The crenellated entrance is similar in design to the mock fortifications to the east
entrance of Prideaux Place (qv) which were probably added by Edmund Prideaux in 1728-
45 or by his son Humphrey before 1758, when they are illustrated in part, in a print
by Borlase.
