Notes
Like [SM D2/9/4], the dairy has 16 external columns but the short ridge roof is now rounded. There are three windows and a door and a fitted, scalloped shelf supported on legs. The wall has a pretty painted decoration of trailing ivy that frames the marble panels, the segmental-headed, three-light windows have stained glass in their heads and the ceiling is coved.
