Notes

Neatly drawn and perhaps intended as a presentation drawing, the plan shows 30 stalls and space for eight coaches so, unusually, the scheme has become larger in succesive designs rather than (because of costs) shrinking. A re-drawing to a larger scale of drawing [93] it is entirely symmetrical except for the spaces given over to harness, corn and saddles.
