of this entablature is level with the sills of attic windows.

those to first and second floors with moulded, projecting
sills. The first-floor windows have, in addition, a raised
panel in the spandrel below each sill; above each lintel is an
entablature with a boldly projecting cornice. The centre
first-floor window has a deep pediment. The centre window on
the second and attic floors is blocked.
