In this house there is a Sitting Hall 20 feet long and arranged so that part of it can be curtained or screened off. The Living Room is 17 feet long, and has large cupboards, with good Scullery, Larder, etc., the back door being so placed that the tradesmen do not go round into the back garden. The Bedrooms are all large, and the Bathroom and w.c. are kept separate. The fireplaces have been made a special feature of design and are not the ordinary shop-made patterns. For the outside treatment, brindled purple stocks, with red arches, etc., have been used.
