Description

The icehouse, probably of the early C19, comprises a tunnel covered by a segmental/horseshoe stone vault, originally plastered, and heaped earth over forming a mound. It is approximately 12m long and 2m wide, 1.4m high, with recesses having cast iron fronts on either side, 1½m back from the front. The passage is said to have a chamber below its floor, now filled up. The entrance front, with drystone wing walls, was once provided with a timber door and frame within the arch.
