Notes
The plans (drawing 56) are copies to a reduced scale of a missing drawing. Thus the Keep is shown as in drawings 5 and 6 but with the amendments shown in drawings 39-42; the first floor is as shown in drawings 5 and 6 (there are no subsequent plans for this new east building). Drawing 57 is a reduced copy of two of the elevations shown on drawing 7 ('The Longitudinal Elevation' and 'Elevation of the Entrance Front of the County Gaol'.)
