Purpose

Designs for perspectives, St John's, Bethnal Green, London, May-June 1825 [2]

Notes

The two perspectives show St John's from the south-west. The truncated tower is an early feature, which shows Soane was thinking about this design from the start of the process. The major difference between them is in the level of ornamentation. The first perspective has far more Soane caps with pinecone finials, but the second has many removed. Again Soane is thinking about economies.
