He had led them out of his grounds by a side-gate, and they were now in the thick of the firs and pines which grew along the steep, somewhat rugged slope of the Shawl.

He turned to Brereton, who was walking at his side.
Clearly, the door had not been opened for many weeks possibly not since my last holidays. I recrossed the bridge and inspected the side-gate. This opened, as I have said, upon a lane never used but by the woodmen on Miss Belcher's estate, and by them very seldom. It entered the park by a stone bridge across the stream and by a ruinous gate, the gaps of which had been patched with furze faggots.

It was a quarter to eleven when I got to the little side-gate that opens on the lawn out there on the north side of the house." "How did you know that?" "I looked at my watch then.
