Purpose

Later survey drawings and further designs for alterations to the Bank of England branch, Bridge Street, August 1827 (3)

Notes

The Day Book entry for 18 August 1827 records Bailey as being 'at Bristol, examining the premises belonging to St Peter's Hospital to ascertain how the inconvenience of the windows could be remedied', and the entries for the following days have both Bailey and Charles James Richardson (1809-1872, pupil 1824-1837) working on plans and reports for the Bristol branch bank. It is presumed that these three drawings are those referred to in the Day Book.
