Notes

The loggias have now been incorporated into the lodges and the colonnades have become loggias. In the drawings showing the gateway, Dance experiments with the depth of masonry above the head and spandrels of the semicircular arch - here there is only a cresting of Vitruvian scrolls.

On 'Parkers Stucco', see Appendix 4 under Francis Bernasconi.
