Notes
This drawing, SM 67/3/2 and SM 67/4/2 are for the structure of the timber roofs over Soane's side pavilions. The roof sections of this drawing and SM 67/4/2 show the lower of the two trusses and king-posts of SM 67/3/2.
The drawing also shows a detail of the rubbed brick pavilion window surround and a detail of a brick arch, which presumably was internal to the pavilion. The centering wedges are shown, which would have been knocked out to let the arch fall correctly into place.
