 The Henleys refurbished the Lodge's Reception Room and partly refurbished the parlour, leaving some original panelling and the original decorated ceiling, but made minimal changes to the Great Oak Room, Small Oak Room and Bedroom, leaving the rich Tudor decoration largely untouched.Before the end of the extension work, John Henley died, leaving Mary Henley childless and unable to inherit.John wrote into his will that Mary had the right to live in the Red Lodge for one month in every year.
