The Morning Room is one of the three ground floor rooms in the south range of 1724. It was enlarged in 1911 by the width of one window, note the ceiling beam on the left. On the right in the original part of the room the ceiling centres in a quatrefoil which frames an emblematic female figure who is said to represent the goddess of architecture.
