Notes
This drawing is much more technical than the previous designs and may be a record copy (bound in volume) of working drawings used on site. The progress drawings of the following two groups show the structure up to the first floor with some roof beams visible. It seems likely that this drawing, SM volume 76/6 and SM volume 76/10 are the designs for the ceiling beams indicated - above the ground floor rooms.
