NOTES: This is an example of the simple steel and glass box house in the style of Mies van der Rohe. Michael Manser adopted this style of construction for eleven of the twenty-five residences he built in his first ten years of practice after 1961. The original Capel Manor that this replaced was designed in Italian Gothic style by T. H. Wyatt in 1859-1862.
