Your bike in front of a gate pics

Gated road to Lower Shuckburgh. There are atually 5 gates, though only 2 were shut and someone very kindly opened the last one for me

Seen at the Snydale Road (& Parish Rooms) entrance

Strictly speaking, it’s a graveyard when in the grounds/adjacent to a Church

it's not quite clear, but can I pass through here onto the Welbeck Estate d'ya think?

One of my favourite gates (from yesterday's ride), from which I can see Exeter, Exmouth, and the English Channel... and I'm sure I can see France if I strain my eyes...

We have a 'Welbeck 'state' up here too, but it's rather different...............

Indeed, very different. But in the not too distant future, your Welbeck might become a more accessible public asset? The one down here will doubtless remain in the hands of the gentry, with access granted to we lowly plebs in the currently limited way ... provided we continue to tug our forelocks as we hurriedly pass through lest we catch a backside full of buckshot.

Your memory's spot on, though the MoD moved the college a while ago. Jo Public only has access to the income generating bits of the estate - a gallery, garden centre, restaurant, artisan food school etc. To be fair, it's quite a nice place to visit, and there are a few public footpaths through the estate.

This gateway into Roche Abbey's not been used as such in a while:
