The wood-burner in the living room was already in place when Libs moved in, but the question was what to do with the space above? The answer came when she visited Bath Decorative Antiques Fair and found a fabulous old painted fairground panel, perfect for the spot
The lofty living room was once used as the village school hall and felt austere. Shoulder height panelling now makes it feel less cavernous, and two sets of recessed shelves are filled with books and treasures. The ogee shape design feature echoes that on the wooden pelmets
