Notes
Room plans vary from Designs A-C so that, for example, the breakfast room, previously circular then square, is now elliptical with a three-window bow and the adjacent rooms are rectangular. However, the essentials of the plan remain the same. There are three-quarter circle buttresses paired at the corners and single elsewhere. The elevation has turrets, pinnacles, pointed-arch windows and quatrefoil pierced parapets.
