Notes
The cornice mouldings for drawing room, library and boudoir or breakfast room (room labelling varies) are as executed though the library cornice is deeper and was presumably added to later. 'Mr Thomas' is perhaps the same person referred to as 'Mr Thoma Plasterer' on full size details of plasterwork for Stratton Park ([SM D1/3/3] verso).
