Monument record TR 15 NW 224 - Roper Gate, St. Dunstan's Street

Summary

The Roper Gate is an excellent example of decorative Tudor brickwork, once the entrance to a great sixteenth century house belonging to the Roper family. All that exists now is an isolated gate façade situated along the north side of St. Dunstan's Street. No known evidence for the location of 'Place House', to which the gate gave access, has survived.
