Ramsey Abbey Gatehouse, Medieval gatehouse in Ramsey, England.
The Ramsey Abbey Gatehouse features Perpendicular Gothic architecture with intricate stone carvings and a prominent oriel window displaying medieval craftsmanship.
Built in the late 15th century, the gatehouse remained standing after the dissolution of Ramsey Abbey in 1537 when Richard Williams acquired the monastery buildings.
The gatehouse represents the architectural heritage of Benedictine monasticism in England, maintaining its Grade I listed building status since 1951.
Access to the gatehouse occurs during specific open days, with the structure currently situated within the grounds of Abbey College in Ramsey.
The outer section of the original gatehouse was dismantled and reconstructed at Hinchingbrooke House, while the remaining portion stands at its initial location.
