The house benefits from many of its original features and fittings. At the entrance to the IPU Courtyard is the Woodworker's shop (converted into a shop); the kitchen gardens; alongside the surrounding gardens attached to Thorpe Hall. These buildings, gardens and courtyards are enclosed by stone walls.
