Description
The covered arcade and attached ice house, located in Kedleston Park, is a Grade II listed structure. It is built of red brick with sandstone dressings and features a hipped Welsh slate roof. The building is a single storey with a south elevation that has eight bays. The bays are adorned with round arches and an impost band, except for the fifth bay from the left, which contains a doorway with a timber lintel and a panelled Gothic door that leads into the stable courtyard. Attached to the south are two 20th-century pergolas supported by Tuscan Doric columns. The rear elevation is blind. At the east end of the arcade is the ice house, which is concealed beneath a rockery to the south and accessed from the north through a full height doorway with a segmental head. Inside, there is a passage that leads to the circular ice house, which features a brick dome and walls attached to the north.
