Brown's Gatehouse

Constructed around 1451 by Bishop Thomas Beyckingtone, Brown's Gatehouse serves as a gateway to The Liberty of St Andrew in Wells, Somerset, England. This medieval gatehouse provides an entrance to the Cathedral Precincts from Sadler Street. But it is named not after the Bishop, but after the shoemaker Richard Brown, who was the next-door tenant in 1553. In the 19th century, it was known as The Dean's Eye. Brown's Gatehouse is built with Doulting ashlar stone and has a Welsh slate roof with coped gables. The archway features a ribbed vault, and a doorway within the porch leads to a staircase to the first floor.
