Having put the gate posts up yesterday, today it was time to install the gates.

The brackets were a bit of a fiddle, but once adjusted, looked pretty good.  Even the spirit level seem to like them!

Jo and Zep helped.

The next stage is to build up the dry stone wall along the roadside to meet the gate post.  Then we can take the trees down to reveal the entrance.

All of the hardware for the gates is from Earnshaw's in Midgley.  It isn't cheap, but it does a great job.
