SCARISBRICK SD 31 SE 8/19 Ice House in grounds of Scarisbrick Hall at SD 390 127 - GV II

Ice house, now disused. Probably c.1800. Brick, stone, and earth. Two chambers: an egg-shaped partly subterranean vessel lined with brick and approached from the north-west by a brick-vaulted passage raised above ground level, with outer, intermediate, and inner doorways of stone, all this covered by a steep earthen mound. A spur of this mound on the southern side covers another brick vaulted chamber, apparently floored at ground level, and approached from the south side by a brick vaulted passage with stone doorways, the outer of which has some evidence of a decorated architrave. Item is very heavily overgrown with ivy and small trees.
