Notes
This drawing was made after the completion of the Clerk of Works' House. It probably dates earlier than SM volume 79/1, SM volume 79/2, SM volume 79/3, SM volume 79/4, SM volume 79/5 and SM volume 79/7 because it is less finished in style and is included in the same book of sketches as some of the earlier designs in this group.
