Pykenham's Gatehouse by chris morton


08-Mar-2016

One of Ipswich's gems is this late C15th gatehouse. http://www.ipswichbuildingpreservationtrust.org.uk/projects/pykenham-s-gatehouse/ . It is hidden under a bushel, or at least inside an easily passable courtyard full of cars and other hideosities. Restored in 1983, it seems to be slipping back into neglect

other sizes: small medium large original auto

It is amazing that it is that old. It is beautiful, and your POV shows it off so well. V

It looks quite charming, and sad to hear that it is slipping back into neglect. Amazing how old it is, too!
