Notes
The house is of four storeys (including basement) and is six bays wide with a small two-storey extension on one side. Survey drawings [1] and [2] show existing bay windows and [2] also has a garden stair. The replacement bay windows seen here have sloped roofs under the new arched windows of the top floor. Below, is a balcony that runs the width of the house and has a two-bay canopy in the centre and twin stairs to the garden. It is the only drawing for this scheme (in the Soane museum) and may not have been executed.
