The Baronial and ecclesiastical antiquities of Scotland (Edinburgh, 1845-1852), vol. 1, plate section 24 (Burgie Castle), original drawing tipped into RIBA's special author's copy. NOTES: This large-scale Z-plan fortified house was built for Robert Dunbar in c.1602. The majority of the castle, apart from the tower and fragment of the main block, was demolished in 1802 and its building materials re-used elsewhere.

NOTES: This church was gutted during the Blitz of 1940 during World War II. The remaining walls of Portland stone were taken down in 1964-1965, shipped to Fulton, Missouri, USA, and re-erected at Westminster College, Fulton. A small planted garden now marks the sunken remains of the original church.

NOTES: The body of this church, built in 1686-1694, was demolished in 1871. The fittings of the church were removed to St Mary's, Britannia Street, Hoxton. The distinctive eight pinnacles of the remaining tower were removed after World War II following bomb damage. The tower was designated a Grade I listed building in 1950 and was restored by the City of London Corporation in 1956.

NOTES: Built in the 1080s for William the Conqueror by Gandalf, Bishop of Rochester, this chapel was where the royal family and the court worshipped and where the knights of the Order of the Bath spent their vigil the night before a coronation.

NOTES: This chapel has been the parish church of the Tower of London since 1520 and is a Royal Peculiar. It is probably best known as the burial place of some of the most famous prisoners executed on Tower Green.

NOTES: The church, adjacent to one of the earliest 'marcher castles', is mainly 12th century. The detached belfry, built as part of the Norman castle's defences, is c.1400.

NOTES: The original Saxon church was rebuilt in Norman style in 1080. The pele tower (peel tower) was added in 1380, with an iron door for defence of the inhabitants against the Scots.

NOTES: Charles Fowler was the architect for the major alterations and additions which were made for the tenth Earl of Devon in 1837-1848.

NOTES: Mount Edgcumbe House underwent significant alterations in 1844 to the designs of George Wightwick.
