Scope and content
Penrose removed the stucco (1750) and battlements on these exterior elevations.
The joints in his brickwork on the street front were re-cut and re-pointed by S.E. Dykes Bower in 1963-65, but the brickwork in the north gable end remained much as Penrose had left it.
Penrose also laid out River Court garden after the demolition of three rows of cottages.
