Similar 'pilasters' with three roundels as part of the capital (here 2 inches wide) were used for the Portugal Street front of the Royal College of Surgeons, London. Kalman (p.222) notes a possible source as the pilaster order of the Temple of Bacchus at Myus, near Miletus published in Society of Dilettanti, Antiquities of Ionia, volume II, 1797, plate XXXV, figure 2.
