Commentary

The present fireplace was reproduced in 1887 after the discovery of an earlier version behind panelling in the W wall during repairs in the 1880s. The date of the original is unknown.

12 original surviving stone corbels supported the roof braces below the hammerbeams. Each corbel features an angel holding a heraldic shield related to the owners of Dartington.
