Notes

The six-bay, two-and-a-half storey elevation of [SM D3/14/8] is now seven bays and two storeys with semicircular-headed windows to the ground floor and flat-headed ones with window guards to the bedroom floor. The rough designs are for a more elaborate external treatment with, for example, Corinthian pilasters between the windows and at the corners of the upper-storey, and a balustraded parapet.
