Great Wall Gate
A gatehouse with a vaulted arch, wall arms stepping down on both sides and a timber watch platform on the roof. The wall arms are terraced rather than continuous so the gate reads as a defended choke point.
Four tapered piers that merge into a single spire above the top deck, with two open platforms and cross bracing between the legs. Built from stone bricks and smoothed grey blockwork to keep the silhouette legible at 21 blocks wide.
