The Charltons Somerset Softwood Hunting Gate is a classic 5-bar gate engineered for the demanding needs of rural estates, equestrian properties, and public bridleways. Crafted from joinery-grade softwood, this gate features a distinctive tapered and chamfered top bar that provides superior strength while maintaining a refined, elegant profile. To ensure maximum longevity against the British elements, every gate is pressure treated (tanalised) and constructed using traditional hardwood doweled mortice and tenon joints.
