Summary
One of a pair of semi-circular side tables, matching a large rectangular table (BRH.F.1). These semi-circular side tables were made to accompany the long tables (832181, 832199, 832200) and would of fitted on the ends of the longer table. These would have then been used in the new Georgian house as the servants refectory tables. Like the long tables, the tops are made from Walnut and are potentially older than the legs. The design of these tables made it possible to either use them as one single long table or the ends could be placed against a wall and used as a side table. It is possible that they were used in both ways.
