The Prospect Street entrance to Mount Feake Cemetery in Waltham, Massachusetts, is a fieldstone gateway capped with granite, built in 1900 at a cost of about $2,000. The wall stands about four feet high, with a six-foot center post and smaller five-foot posts. An open touring automobile with its driver passes through the gate, while a woman carrying a parasol and a man in dark clothing stand on the lawn. A small gatehouse and rail fence sit on the rise behind.
