It's the sunroom isn't it? Look at the electric fire in the bottom right.
ReplyDeleteNo - window totally wrong. The sunroom, which was obviously tacked on later, didn't have those distinctive windows common to the rest of the house - it had large clear glass on sliding doors.
ReplyDeletebtw the John-era sunroom was refurbished after he moved out. A real fireplace and chimney were added, and a proper roof put on. However, sometime in the '90s, the whole structure was demolished and rebuilt - with windows similar to the rest of the house. It's a pity the most iconic room at Kenwood is on a scrapheap somewhere, but such is the way of it.
