In overall fairly good country house condition. With the inevitable knocks, marks, losses, scratches and shrinkage cracks, consistent with age and use. The hangings as stated modern and in fair condition but with some minor fading, pulled threads and wear, which would benefit from cleaning. The rails replaced. The posts increased in height slightly and possibly older than 20th century. Overall ready to use and decorative.
