Purpose
Surveys of the water pipes and drains, 1749 (3)
Notes
Henry Flitcroft's 1749 surveys show the house as it was built before his renovations. Soane probably referred to the drawing when he designed the rebuilt water reservoir (Castello d'acqua) in 1793. Soane's Journal No 2 records that he sent Lady Hardwicke a plan of the basement storey 'shewing water pipes' on 31 August 1795.
