Commentary

Ceiling height: 14'

Not original plasterwork. As part of the 19th c. renovations, Barry reproduced a slightly modified version of the 17th c. design, adding scrolls to the pendants and the monogram 'KS' into the strapwork (<i>Gawthorpe Hall</i> 14).

Textual Description

'The ceiling is divided into four bays by three richly moulded oak beams with moulded brackets supported on wood corbels and longitudinally by three smaller beams, similarly moulded, making twelve squares, each square being enriched by moulded joists about a foot apart. The ceiling of the bay is boarded, with thin moulded ribs nailed on forming a star-shaped panelling.'

Textual Description

Originally the hall was open to the roof and some of its fine arched brace beams are still visible in the room above, but the addition of the 2nd floor distorts the impression.
