Notes
Dance keeps the wreathed pedestals, lions and achievement of arms roughed in on [SM D2/8/31] but employs piers of a more complex plan and an Ionic order.
The uninscribed drawing was previously filed with the drawings for Coleorton but the use of an order and of semicircular arches seemed incongruous for that project, hence this new identification.
