The famous Bill Nicholson Gates have returned home to Tottenham today and work has begun on their reinstallation in PAXTON17, led by the same team that managed their removal from White Hart Lane in 2015.
The black and gold wrought iron gates and accompanying hoarding are planned for completion ahead of the new season.
Bill first stepped through them as a youngster on trial in 1936 - he went on to make 341 appearances as a player between 1938-54, winning the First Division title in 1950/51, before leading the team to eight major trophies as manager between 1958-1974, including the 'double' in 1960/61.
The gates became synonymous with 'Mr Tottenham' following a famous photograph taken by Peter Robinson in the 1970s. The iconic, original photograph that gave the gates their name is currently on display in OOF Gallery, alongside some of Peter's greatest works, until 31 August.
