Here we see Queen Victoria and Prince Albert visiting the main kitchen: '...a noble room situated on the south side of a spacious court. It stands at the east end of the mansion, and measures 48 feet by 30; the roof is very lofty, and has a groined ceiling, of earlier style even than the old mansion. At one end is a large painting of a carcase of beef - an exhibition of the true ensign armorial of English hospitality...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V.
