angle of L-shape. Further tall brick stack to kitchen range. 2 storeys 4-window

handrail, of 2 tiers of turned oak balusters. 3 chamfered and stopped doorframes at
head of stairs, 2 with ovolo chamfers and bar stops, 1 straight chamfered. Hearth

moulded lintel. 2 closed trusses with lath and plaster partitions at each end of
