Interior is lined with stone shelves at intervals of about 18 ins, integral with wall construction; and on each shelf at intervals of about 2 ft 6 ins are nesting holes. A short top stage, of knapped flint with red brick dressings and corbels supporting an octagonal slated roof, was also added in C19.
