NOTES: The cathedral was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott and was consecrated in 1879; however, lack of funds meant that at that time neither the chapter house nor the west towers were built. Scott's grandson, Charles Marriott Oldrid Scott, provided designs for the completion of the west towers in 1913-1916 and they were finished in 1917. This drawing was exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, in 1917 (Completion of the Western Towers, St Mary's Cathedral, Edinburgh, number 1346).
NOTES: Dulwich College [Alleyn's College of God's Gift] wanted to expand its campus and in the 1860s commissioned Charles Barry junior to design New College, or what are now know as the Barry Buildings, which opened in1870. In what Barry called 'North Italian of the 13th Century' these buildings are now Grade II* listed. This is possibly one of the drawings exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts, London (in 1866 Dulwich New College no. 767; in 1868 AlleynÔÇÖs College, Dulwich no. 876; and in 1869 New Dulwich College; interior no. 1018). It could also be one of the three drawings of ÔÇÿAlleynÔÇÖs CollegeÔÇÖ exhibited at the Paris Universal Exposition of 1878.
NOTES: These drawings are designs for a 27-storey block tower at Moorgate, City of London. The project was carried out as a design exercise to familiarise the architects with the technology of tall office buildings.
