This is the traditional Menorca gate that is usually made from Olive wood I believe. It is interesting that the angle piece in each gate slopes down towards the middle from the hinge side, and not the reverse e.g. middle top to lower hinge side, as is usual with UK gates.
These are pictures of a new gate piece used in a shop display in Ciutadella Menorca. It was very nicely made presumably by a local artisan.
