Condition report: 

The linen press has been reduced in depth - some has been removed off the back in the past to reduce the depth of the linen press 

Originally probably fitted with slides as can be seen by the shadows. 

Later hanging rail. 

Bottom boards of one side have been removed. See images. 

Some shrinkage cracks as to be expected, notably to the sides and back feet and cornice in areas, with repairs. Losses to back edges of the back boards. 

Some later internal railing. 

Other inevitable scuffs, scrathes, dents, small chips and marks commensurate with wear, use and age.
