stone fireplace has cornice with pendants initialled 'JT' (John Tillotson) and date
1630 (his birth date), imported over-mantel with classical battle scene; small
retractable wooden heads to jambs (possibly to hold fire screen). Very fine panelling

ornate with cupboard and attached cist. Front wall window has panelled soffit and
frieze with grotesques. Part of ceiling elaborately moulded (imported). On first
floor, 2 cambered tie-beams. Interior of Old Haugh End not inspected. Kendall notes
that the initials and date in the Oak Room appear to be by the same craftsmen as those
in Old Haugh End of Joshua Horton, dated 1703, and suggests Horton had the Oak Room
ones done (Kendall, P167). In 1705 Horton leased the property to Josias Stanfield,
and Kendall notes that this date and the initials of Josias and Ann Stanfield feature
on the sundial (Kendall, p159).
