Stair Landing

The second floor features a Stair Landing where the Grand Staircase enters. Opposite this is the Treaty Room doorway and to the east is the ramp to the East Sitting Hall. This area is screened off from the rest of the Central Hall by an arch with a fan light window and can be closed by pocket doors.
