#IronWorkThursday
Thursday catchup: There are many gates to God's house....
There are certainly several ways to get into the churchyard of #StMaryBitton of which this kisser and wrought iron gate pair are the most venerable. Starting to feel kinda Spring-like #Thursgate #IronworkThursday

The watcher in the tower

Ornate metal objects, predominantly associated with horse harnesses e.g. strap fittings, a bit, finials, terrets, strap unions, a yoke fitting, possible tracery elements, a decorative openwork fitting, a linchpin and nave band.
Bent iron tyres, hub elements and U-shaped iron brackets in situ.
This #IronworkThursday we had to share the Melsonby Hoards again! Located near a 'royal site' and dominated by ornate horse harness and vehicle parts, it broadens our understanding of wheeled transport and elite mortuary practices in Iron Age Britain.

A #ViewFromTheChurchDoor from #StJohnKeynsham #Somerset
For this symmetry loving mus the doorway is curiously offset but Mouse suppose that the double chamfered pointed doorway and quatrefoil mesh protector gate kind of offsets that #Thursgate #IronworkThursday

South porch #StJohnKeynsham #Somerset
If the pointed doorway with fleurons in the cavetto moulding (very C15), label, head stops and vacant niche above aren't lovely enough then check out the quatrefoil mesh of the protector gate #DoorwayThursday #Thursgate #IronworkThursday
I have no idea why #ironworkthursday is a thing, but I have a picture for that as well.
Original gates from inside a 1920s Mediterranean mansion in Bel Air, CA I suppose to keep the dog off the furniture in the living room - I'm imagining Afghan hounds

#IronworkThursday Dragon weather vane from St George, Orleton, Herefordshire.
A marble door with two leaves is shown in a thick marble frame, set into the wall of a tomb (in which opus reticulatum stonework is evident, but fragmentary).In front of the doorway is a thick stone step, and other thick stones are placed vertically on each side. The door on the left has an iron handle and evidence of a possible lock. Bits of greenery are seen along the edges of door and doorway.

Unusual C1 Pompeiian marble door of tomb with original #IronworkThursday fittings, near Herculaneum gate.
Research in 2011 combined inscription fragments in stores to indicate it was tomb of freedman Lucius Caltilius L. L. Pamphilus and wife Servilia.

Wikipedia description - The glazed roof is supported by wrought iron arches in three spans, respectively spanning 68 feet (21 m), 102 feet (31 m) and 70 feet (21 m). The roof is 699 feet (210 m) long, and the original roof spans had two transepts connecting the three spans.
Paddington Station, London
The main station of 1854 was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
But, the architectural detailing was by his associate Matthew Digby Wyatt. He took inspiration from Joseph Paxton's Crystal Palace & the München Hauptbahnhof.

Good church gates seem to be a bit thin on the ground in these parts, but half a gate is better than none #StLukeBrislington Bristol #Thursgate #IronworkThursday
