Monument record TR 15 NE 1634 - Medieval Northgate

Summary

Nothing remains of the ancient gateway of Northgate today, though it was the last of Canterbury's gates to be demolished. The pillars supporting the chamber over the gateway can be seen in the corner of the accompanying detail from a city terrier made in 1828-1829, a year before demolition.
