Notes
In Beaumont's sitting room, double pilasters (as shown on [SM D1/12/2]) instead of the single ones shown in this drawing were executed; the shutter is as executed. In the bedroom, the window has been lengthened at some time. Matching windows in deal were made for the blind windows on the west front behind which lay the dining room which was lit by large windows on the south side.
