An arched wooden alcove with display cabinets for books and objects. This must have been built in the space of the former staircase.

Aha!

A room with wood panelled walls and ceiling. Large windows look out onto a garden. There is a small desk and a comfortable looking armchair.

Let's have a look below. Nice library

A very old staircase. The ceiling is vaulted in a diamond or crisscross pattern, there is a bricked up door on the left and the stairs are gone, but there is a large round wooden structure where they used to be.

This is the geometric staircase at Ayscoughfee Hall in Spalding, Lincolnshire. The diamond vaulted ceiling is unusual, but what is that round wooden structure that has replaced the stairs?
