  • TOLL HOUSE (19th Century - 1864 AD to 1878 AD)

Description

Hogstone gate (nowadays Hoggeston) was first proposed in 1855 but 'negatived' by 10 votes to 4. It was not until August 1864 that the trustees ordered the erection of a toll house and gate across the road between the turn to 'Hogstone' and the Neptune Public House (opposite the turn to Swanbourne) as soon as possible. In January 1877 the lessee was required to repair the toll house himself. It closed in 1878 with the rest of the gates belonging to the trust (B1).
