Chapter 1: Notes

Footnote 17:

See Steel, H. R., and Yerbury, F. R., _The Old Bank of England_,
London, 1930, for photographic coverage of this monument of which the
interiors were largely destroyed in the 1920s, and even the exterior
considerably—and unnecessarily—modified (see Chapter 24).

Rutter, J., _An Illustrated History and Description of Fonthill
Abbey_, Shaftesbury, 1823; and Storer, J., _A Description of Fonthill
Abbey_, Wiltshire, London, 1812. The most extensive modern account of
the building of Fonthill Abbey is given by Brockman, H. A. N., _The

Hussey in _The Picturesque_ lists many of these books and gives good
examples of their illustrations.

First, that is, in this period. The columnar Monument in the City of
London by Robert Hooke, commemorating the Great Fire, dates from the
1670s.

Footnote 22:

See Telford, T., _An Account of the Improvements of the Port of

Footnote 30:

The idea probably originated with Soufflot, who had earlier proposed a
similar plan for the cathedral of Rennes.

Russian), _Starye Gody_, (1911), 3-64.

Footnote 37:

Kaufmann, who illustrates the Belanger project in _Architecture in the
Age of Reason_, figure 169, dates it around 1808 on the ground that
slaughterhouses first began to be built in Paris in that year. It is
extremely unlikely, of course, that Hansen ever saw this project; but
the similarity of his tower to Belanger’s indicates how closely he was
in tune with his French contemporaries. In any case similar towers are
to be found in the projects published by Durand in his _Précis_ of
1802-5, which Hansen must have known (see Chapter 2).
