Its depth only spans approx half the depth of the cupboard but is as wide as it can be in the cupboard. A later lock has been introduced to the left lower door and a key hole cut in order to use it. A small section at the end of of the shelf (at the top of the front of the lower section) is a replacement. To each upright flanking the outer edge of the lower doors there is an aperture for a tenon joint. This is curious and difficult to explain as the doors appear original, unless the uprights were originally recycled or mistakenly cut with additional apertures for joints. Good colour and patina overall. The hinges are replacements but are hand forged and appear 18th or early 19th century. Please refer to the images for visual reference to condition.
