Extract

The attention of archseologists was first drawn to this important building on the appearance of the first volume of the late Mr. Hudson Turner's Domestic Architecture in England, now nearly half a century ago, but since that time no fresh account or description of it has been printed. It is the intention of the present paper to examine it more carefully, and to describe and illustrate it in detail.
