Notes

The plan is close to that of drawing [62] with some adjustments so that two water closets have been added to the wings and the entrance to the stables is larger and framed by two Doric columns. The walls are articulated by pilasters and the roof is to be tiled.
The verso of the sheet has been used for testing out brush strolkes etcetera and may have been used as a backing sheet to a drawing board.
