Notes
Dance's 'Great Eating Room' was to the north of the new staircase (and presumably on the site of the old staircase that now ran from the first floor). The north wall was mostly glass with three 12 foot windows 4 feet 6 inches wide separated and framed by pilasters 1 foot 5¾ inches wide. Semicircular sideboard alcoves flanked the door on the south side.
