Full Description

An icehouse is shown on late 19th century OS maps at the southern end of the fishpond in the park to the east of Grangewood Hall. It is depicted as an almost square structure with a smaller rectangular structure on its south side, presumably the entrance chamber. (1, 2) It appears to have been removed in the early 20th century, as it is not shown on the 3rd ed. OS map. It may have been demolished when a Pumping House was built, shown on that map just to the west of the icehouse site. (3)
