Purpose
[11] Design close to the final design, from June 1784
Aspect
Ground plan indicating the location of the Church Yard, and (marked in red pen) the existing Rectory and its outbuildings. The plan of the ground floor has a central bow to the north-west and another to the south-east with kitchen offices and semi-elliptical court on the right-hand side and stables and matching court on the opposite side. The Brewhouse, Washouse & Laundry are located away from the house. A North West View of the House & Offices and an elevation from the south-west correspond with the plan. The incomplete front elevation varies from the plan though an additional outline plan explains the difference namely that a narrow bay has been inserted between the house and its offices giving greater width and presence
