Full Description
The Main Gate stands at the east end of Lady Woottons Green, and is known as Fyndon's Gate, or the great Gate of 14th century date. The small piece of walling highlighted on map-info here is actually part of the earlier 13th century Guest Hall, built perhaps at the same time as the Original Gate.
