Mr. Inigo Triggs' design for a house at Newport well-wooded site about a mile south of Wokingham,
was likewise in this year's Academy. The house The bricks used for facings are "clamp" bricks
is approached by a forecourt, upon one side of from Chichester; they are very varied in colour—
which stands a half-timbered dovecot
and open garden house. A pergola,
built in the Italian manner, connects
this garden building and the house.
This is carried out in a treatment of
half-timber work upon traditional Eng-
lish lines, with garden entrance on the
west side, leading to the lawn. The
first floor contains seven bedrooms, the
servants' rooms being above.

For the house at Mundesley, on the
Norfolk coast, of which we here give a
perspective view and plans, the materials
employed are red brick with split flint
diaper and glazed pantiles for the roof.
The bays are carried out in wood, with >
lights and cast-lead panels between the
windows. Wood tracery like that in-
dicated in the windows is found in many
old houses in the district. The archi-
tects of this house are Messrs. Oliver,
Leeson & Wood, of Newcastle-on-Tyne.

The house at Wokingham, Berks, of
which a view is given on the next page, has
been built for Mr. E. D. Mansfield, from ^ ^ ^ ^
