Notes
[SM D1/11/22] and [SM D1/11/31] seem to be close to the executed design except for a pierced quatrefoil parapet that appears in both drawings and which was apparently not carried out (see [D1/11/24]). The office wing, set lower than the house, is three-storeys high and has simple square-headed windows.
