Notes
To overcome the difficulty of Change Alley running through the main floor, Dance has raised the banking hall above a low rusticated ground floor that on the left has two square windows over segmental-headed openings to the vaults while on the far side a door is placed below the right-hand window of the first floor. The elevation is 46 feet 6 inches wide.
