^ A George III mahogany four poster bed with canopy top and spiral turned posts, 257cm high

Everything seems original with the exception of the headboard and posts and some modern pine slats added to base. The bed is covered in fabric which is later. The spiral turned posts, bed frame and canopy top are all original. The maximum width is 166cm, in our opinion a 5ft mattress could fit on the bed however this would mean a gap of about 2 inches either side. Structurally ok. Not on castors.
