Grade II Listed Door
Shaun Castle 13 November 2006

The distinctive ornament found in the former Vicar's study of the Old Vicarage, Edenhall, includes an exquisitely finished door in applied baize, a coarse woolen material something like flannel, dyed red. In addition to its ornamental function, the baize is thought to have been used as a soundproofing device. The listed room also contains finely carved inset bookcasing with red leather shelf curtains and an ornately carved fireplace with surround of Caryatid mouldings.
