Notes

In contrast to the previous designs, in this drawing the entrance leads directly into the staircase hall. The room to the left is subdivided into three smaller rooms (or a room and two closets). The eating room towards the rear has a regular rectangular plan, but the projecting bow of the room above is also shown in plan.

On the verso of the drawing, in pencil, is a previously-unattributed plan for the basement storey of Pitzhanger Manor, Soane's house in Ealing (q.v.).
