Ice house belonging to Wrest Park House. Early C19. Brick. A rather
sophisticated example. Circular domed ice chamber is approximately 8.5 metres
high and 4.5 metres in diameter, with ice chute to top. This is approached by
a tunnel with 3 pairs of air-lock doorways and a rectangular storage room
halfway along. The air-lock doors have since been removed. The entrance, set
into a bank, is approached by 2 flights of steps from the road above.
