NOTES: This late Elizabethan mansion was built in 1585-1600 for Thomas Tailor, registrar to the Bishop of Lincoln. In 1761, the owner Sir John Hussey Delaval remodelled a number of rooms in the house, including the entrance hall, drawing room, state bedrooms, the main staircase and the long gallery which extends the length of the west front on the second floor. The alterations were carried out by local carpenter Thomas Lumby.
NOTES: Built as the palace of the Prince-Bishops to the plans of Balthasar Neumann, though modified by Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt and Johann Maxmilian von Welsch.

The fountain was unveiled in 1894 as a tribute by the city of Wurzburg and the whole of Franconia (the district in which Wurzburg sits) to Luitpold the Prince Regent of Bavaria (1821-1912), who was born in the palace.
NOTES: This late nineteenth century house was the home of Leicester Sound Radio from 1981-2002. An extension to the rear was built by Pick Everard to house the station when it moved here in 1981. See RIBA115385 for a colour version of this image.

NOTES: The Finsbury Health Centre was an attempt to rationalize the borough's health provision by providing on a single site a wide range of facilities, the needs of some of which could alter radically with time. Tecton's masterly solution to the complex circulation patterns such a multi-functional building entailed was hailed by architectural and medical critics alike as a prototype and a radical break with traditional health provision. The building is Grade I listed and was partly restored in the 1990s.
