Design and detail drawings for entrance portico, and record copies, two dated 13 May 1788 (4)

The four-columned pedimented Doric portico has a simple entablature omitting ornamentation on the bed mould and architrave. Inside the portico, pilasters frame the front door and glazing. The portico is between single windows set within blind rounded arches. The verso of drawing 3 shows an Ionic portic centred on a three-bay entrance front of three storeys, with rough pen marks indicating the floor levels; this elevation has been cancelled in rough pen.

Ham Hill stone (aka Hamstone) was quarried on Ham Hill, Somerset, approximately 12 miles from Cricket St Thomas.
