Notes
Dance has added a detached shed for each cottage as well as pencilling in chimneys to the ovens. As built, the single pitch roofs of the lean-to are 45 not 60 degrees as shown and the front door was moved to the side and replaced by a window.
The four by four pane windows shown in the drawing became five or six (ground floor) and four by six (upper floor).
