Summary[edit]

Description
English: Old Iron Gate onto Meadow at Ashridge In 1866 Lord Brownlow, of Ashridge House, decided to enclose Berkhamsted Common. Augustus Smith decided this was an unacceptable breach of ancient rights and recruited a miniature army of Cockney "toughs" and Irish labourers and chartered a special train to convey them from Euston to Tring in the dead of night. They marched to the new iron fence and demolished it. This iron gate is said to be from that time.
