Purpose

[113] Design for the site and stone curb for Holy Trinity Church, Marylebone, London, 1 November 1826

Aspect

Plan of a church approached by steps within a wide insulated space. At the front is a curved path emanating from the bottom corners, which passes in front of the church. Towards the rear of the church there is another curving path from one corner to the other which passes in front of the rear of the church. Around the border is stone curbing with indications in blue for the placement of railings. There are faded pencil markings perhaps showing the arrangement of the drainage system similar to SM 54/5/5 and SM 54/5/7
