Icehouse 110m south west of Burton Manor College main building is a nineteenth-century ice storage structure located in Cheshire. The building reflects the domestic practices of the period, when artificial refrigeration was unavailable and ice harvested from frozen ponds and lakes during winter months was stored in insulated chambers for use throughout the year. Such icehouses were common features of substantial country estates and represented significant investments in food preservation technology. The structure survives as evidence of the practical innovations employed by wealthy households in the pre-mechanical refrigeration era.
