Notes
The bow to the garden elevation has gone. The hall has two partitions and two columns as in previous drawings. New is the conversion of the stables to kitchen, larder, scullery and coals with a stepped external link to the house. A colonnaded terrace with a pair of quarter- curved stairs fronts the saloon.
