WORSLEY LEIGH ROAD SD 70 SW (south side) 1/40 Worsley Hall 29/7/66 Ice-house - II
Ice-house. 1840s. Built for the 1st Earl of Ellesmere. Hammer-dressed stone; brick internally. A barrel-vaulted structure which creates a mound in the ground level and is entered at one end. All that is visible externally is a blocked up door in a segmental section of stonework which reflects the shape of the vault inside. Interior not inspected but said to contain an unusual vaulted approach chamber with stone-lined doorways, 5 stone steps down and a deep shaft which tapers downwards.
