This is very sad news. Andrew's Architect and Engineer was and remains one of the the most influential and helpful books I've ever read, referenced it just yesterday. Always wished to meet him. Sending condolences to his family and friends.

The mortgage lender? 😆 mind you, they don't like anything. Sounds fantastic to me!

Yes lots of stylised classical details like egg and dart and dentils for string coursing. It's a great example of engineers using design catalogues of iron manufacturers. Was the same for brick and timber!

Fantastic, I love that you can see the watermarks and layers of colour. Reminds me of my favourite, Father Christmas by Raymond Briggs! Bloomin' marvellous
