The Entrance Hall
The entrance hall demonstrates the effective recycling of materials from Thurloe's Mansion with carved panels and door frames.
The Regency period Mahogany bookcase contains Gordon Fendicks collection of records of the Royal Geographic Society.
The Oak Chest dates from 1759, above which hangs a canvas panel lettered with the History of the Castle
The brass Dutch style chandelier matches that in the Fendick Room and is thought to come from March Town Hall.
The stained glass panels in the balcony door are certainly medieval and are thoght to have come from the chapel of the Bishop's Palace. Whilst they are assembled from fragments, St Edmund is clearly identifiable.
The odd proportions of the building are noticeable in the hall, with the staircases accessed by doors
