Steps with iron railings to front gardens, formerly school playground raised on brick barrell vaults formerly used for storage. INTERIORS. Dogleg staircases with turned balusters. Raised and fielded dado and full panelling in halls, on staircases and in many rooms, and corner fireplaces in several.
