To the drawing room is a massive brick chimney breast with a lintel of ashlar. A staircase of C18 or early C19 date has been brought from elsewhere. The first floor has exposed small-framing and angle braces to rooms in the older portion; the low positioning of the angle braces shows that the wall height has been raised.
