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
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

A heavy iron door is shown in an iron frame. The hinges on the left, the large rectangular lock fitting and two bolts top and bottom are all heavy duty. The door has a heavy grill in the top third with bars across and 16 small square holes. Above the door is another grill with 3 rows of 6 holes. The door, frame and panel above all have many rivets/studs for strength. The door is shown at the Museum of London before it closed in 2023. Newgate Prison was near the Fleet River and the Old Bailey on the west side of the City of London. Will it be displayed when the new London Museum opens in Smithfield in 2026?
1780s door to a Newgate Prison cell.
From 1188-1902 men & women prisoners of all sorts held in foul conditions, many awaiting transportation/execution.
Inmates incl Wm Penn, Capt Kidd, Wilde, Defoe, Casanova.
Hardly #AdoorableThursday, so #IronworkThursday.
Will we see it in new London Museum 2026?

A view from inside the church into the porch with its roof of fan vaulting. The 17th wooden door with metal stud work is open.
Holy Trinity Church, Torbryan, Devon
This mainly 15th Century Perpendicular church has an entrance porch with fan vaulting.
Viewed here with the 17th Century wooden door being open.

I do like a nice gate, ornate but not too much so.
