Notes
The larger door is as executed and extant (see note to [SM D1/13/20] verso) while the ceiling, if executed to this design, no longer exists. The present chimney-piece is a later Neo-Adam affair and while the capping to the window survives, the pilasters either side of the quadrant corners have gone.
For joiner's details of a window to the dining room, boudoir (breakfast room) and drawing room, see [SM D1/12/52] recto and verso. For the drawing room window on the east front, see [SM D1/12/49].
