Scope and content
Paper regarding drawings exhibited by Mr J Carter, being two of Wells Cathedral, one of Milan Cathedral and one from the Abbey Church of St Albans and descriptions thereof, addressed to Sir Henry Englefield. [The two pages relating to Milan Cathedral have been struck through several times. The description refers scornfully to William Kerrich’s essay on the meaning of the term ‘Gothic’ in architecture].
See Minutes of 22 June 1809; only the two drawings of Wells Cathedral and the one from St Albans were exhibited.
