NOTES: This drawing was taken from measured studies executed by Sir John Soane, prepared in 1817 to accompany his Royal Academy lectures. The Palladian mansion of Amesbury House (Abbey) has been attributed to Inigo Jones, although John Webb is believed to have been largely responsible for its design. The house was later rebuilt by Thomas Hopper between 1834 and 1840.
