Rear entrance

As you go east on Avvai Shanmugam Salai (earlier known as Lloyds Road), you will most probably miss this unused gate on your right. The gate is a break in a long walled stretch; most of the people I polled assumed the wall had something to do with the American Consulate - a wrong, but reasonable, guess. 

If you get through this gate, you would find yourself on the grounds of the St. George's Cathedral. Though, from this point, you would be closer to the cemetery than the cathedral itself. Tempted? Don't be, because it is far easier to walk in through the main gate of the cathedral on - where else! - Cathedral Road!
