Notes

The drawing shows a two-storey building, 68 feet long, with double-height kitchen in the centre lit by three tall semicircular-headed windows with a single-storey larder and scullery either side with rooms over reached by stairs at each end; the hipped roof is of Copper and Slate. This design relates to the plans on [SM D1/1/14] and [SM D1/1/22] where a detached kitchen is shown opposite and towards the rear of the west wing. There are no National Monuments Record photographs of the chapel-like kitchen but, considering Carter's small interventions such as the addition of door swings, it seems very likely that the kitchen was built to this design.

The memorandum relates to the survey site plan of East Stratton chapel dated 10 April 1807 ([SM D1/6/4]).
