Ice House in Grounds of Clock House Approximately 150 Metres to South West of the House

The ice house located in the grounds of Clock House, approximately 150 meters to the south-west of the house, dates from around 1812. Access is through a door set in a stone facade, which features the initials TE and the date 1812, referencing Thomas Edmeades, a former owner of Clock House. Inside, a staircase descends 17 feet and turns into a passageway. On the right side, a doorway opens at a high level into an ice storing well. To the left, the passage continues to a cold storage chamber. A second staircase, located beneath the entrance staircase, leads to the floor of the ice well, which has a diameter of 14 feet and is constructed of brick. The upper portion of the well is domed and includes a shaft that extends to the surface. The cold storage chamber was used for storing game and meat, with a floor paved in bricks and lime-washed rendered walls. There are 38 slots in the walls that supported a circular shelf, and higher up, additional slots and heavy iron rails were likely used for suspending game and meat.
