Brilliant thread idea!

I found these, but I can't remember where they are now! I'm sure somebody can help!

St Annes Gates: I think they're at the start of Overbury Street/Chatham Place.
I noticed that the gates at Wavertree Playground have recently been painted.

I like these gates. When I was a child I used to love swinging on gates.

I may give some of these a go for old times sake, but I think I would be arrested by police for having fun.

Maybe I should do it in a mask and be like a ninja. The ninja of GATES!!!!!

I wonder if I could find a Lion-O mask on ebay.......

Now this is a rather strange photo - it seems to show Princes* Park Gates during the gilding of the 'Sunburst' effect, with only the right-hand one having been completed. Can this pic be dated and what is the source, please?

(* It's Princes with one 's', by the way - after Prince Albert, the Prince Regent)

Walk through Dino's Gates

The iron Renwick gates fashioned as an ogee arch,
finally set up, a century late, gateposts sculpted

in warm red-sandstone by Constantine Seferlis,
truthfully not wild like the leering ogres conjured

up by this cheeky animalier: bulldog, poodle,
a cat w/ bird in teeth, praying mantis, praying pig.

Come walk through Dino's gates this fine spring
morning; feel free to ogle the rampant pink magnolia,

startle-Tweety-bird yellow witch hazel, and, lookee!
hid by a dusky wall, a lavender Korean rhododendron.

Christopher T. George
