Notes

Soane's Bakehouse was located between Soane's Stables and Wren's old Guardhouse, bordered by the 'West Road' on its east side. Designs show a one-storey, yellow stock brick building with a hipped slate roof and a distinctive 'Soanean' central chimney stack.

This drawing shows a plan and section of the Bakehouse cornice. The section is labelled and the plan, though unlabelled, corresponds to the section across D to E.
