G – Gates

Going through my archive the other day, I realise that I like gates.

A random selection:

Recently Renovated entrance gateway to Clotworthy House in Antrim.

Leixlip, Co Kildare

Graveyard at Donaghadee, Co Down.

Castle Upton Grounds, Templepatrick, Co Antrim.

Templepatrick, Co Antrim.

Old gates at Sixmilewater, Antrim, recently removed as part of the redevelopment work. Time I went to see if they have been repaired and replaced.

This is my favourite. I found it on a walk at Ballyrobert, County Antrim.

I forgot this one.

I call this my gate of hope.

It is always the first place I see snowdrops and crocuses every year, and it always adds a spring to my step.
