and keystone of archway. Interior: not inspected in detail at resurvey, but
containing C19 and possibly earlier stalls and tackrooms. William Belwood's
design was chosen for the east front of the building, but the elaborate
south front may be the work of John Carr or Robert Adam. Jill Low, "William
