Purpose
Working drawings for ceiling and roof timbers in library addition, 9 June 1796 (3)
Notes
Drawings 8 to 10 are working drawings for the ceiling and roof timbers in the library addition. The drawings are dated only five days after the client approved the presentation drawings (see 3 to 5). In August 1796, Soane went to Holwood accompanied by George Dance, possibly to oversee building works or to discuss his intentions for the third set of proposed building works (see drawings 11 to 51).
The working drawings show the bay window as covered with a hipped roof, unlike the flat lead roof of drawing 7.
