GV II
Formerly a shippon, early C18, now a Music Room. Red brick in English
garden wall bond with stone slate roof. Single storey, 4 truss bays.
Entrance, in the north gable, consists of a 6-panel door in ovolo
moulded frame with external lining and ogee architraves. There is a
shallow hood above the door, this is on ogee brackets and is
surmounted by a blocked pitch hole. Down the east side there are
three pairs of French windows with glazing bars, external ovolo moulds
and narrow hoods on ovolo brackets. The French windows are surmounted
by oeils-de-boeuf windows with radial bars. The windows are in panels
formed by two brick pilasters taken up to eaves level. On the west
side an outshut with catslide roof, continuing from the main slope,
covers a store of no special interest. The sandstone ridge is divided
by an open bellcote with boarded base, arched openings, and lead
pyramid roof with weather vane.
Interior: An internal porch leads to a pair of
3-raised-and-fielded-panel doors and a brick staircase (east) to the
gallery. In the Music Room plastered pilasters, with ogee moulded
caps, support plaster panelled tie beams, each with glass chandelier.
At the south end of, the room there is a raised dais and screen of
plain Roman Ionic columns supporting a moulded beam. At the rear of
the dias four unfluted Roman Doric columns flank two flush doors and a
niche with urn. A central fireplace, on west wall, has ogee
architraves and moulded mantelshelf. The door opening below the
gallery (north) is flanked by book cases and there is a reeded frieze
to the doorcase. The doorcase is flanked and surmounted by panels
framed in gilt mouldings and there are similar moulds to the gallery
capping.
