DescriptionThe Northgate inscription - north side - geograph.org.uk - 749836.jpg |
English: The Northgate inscription - north side. The Northgate carries the city wall over Northgate Street. This north facing inscription reads:
PORTAM SEPTENTRIONALEM SVBSTRVCTAM A ROMANIS VETVSTATE JAM DILAPSVRAM IMPENSIS SVIS AB INTEGRO RESTITVENDAM CVRAVIT ROBERTUS COMES GROSVENOR. A.R. GEORGII TERTII LI Although I can't translate the inscription I believe the gist is that this northern gate was built on the dilapidated remains of the Roman one at the expense of Lord Robert Grosvenor in the 51st year of George III. That year would equate to 1810, which agrees with the inscription on the southern side of the gate. See also 747705 |
