Ice-house approximately
4/136 150 metres to south-west
of Wortley Hall
II
Ice-house. Early-mid C19. For the Wortley Hall estate. Red brick and ashlar
sandstone. Earth-covered mound set in bank to north-east of adjacent fish pond and
crowned by square brick upstand with heavy coping having hinge-pins for hatches (now
removed), top of ice-house pierced by rebated round hole. To the south, an ashlar-
coped feeder channel allows ice to be raked off the fish pond into the side of the
subterranean structure which at time of resurvey was full of debris. An unusual and
