A bridge to the garden, which has a terrace and an oval flower bed or pond, has been introduced at the north end of the east wing (see also [SM D1/1/26] verso) which is now shorter by about 18 feet, with the antechamber between the two reception rooms omitted. This revised design shows the east wing shortened to 99 feet 6 inches from (west wing) 110 feet 6 inches. On [SM D1/1/8] the east wing is marked as 84 feet 6 inches long. Green pen lines show the 'Hyp[s]' and ridges of the roof.
