Adjacent to Steeple Lodge was - until WW2 - a gate controlling access to the Wentworth estate. The gate is long gone - but remnants of the gatepost are still in existence.
For a time until about 1995 a pyramidal carved stone was in use as a garden ornament - it had an earlier life as the stylish 'top' of the east gatepost.
The west gatepost; or rather remnants of it, were found in the nearby Lowe Wood - where they had been discarded after apparently being damaged.
Photographic evidence exists to support some of the above assertions.
