Abstract (en)
Compares the nearly identical facades of an early 18th c. town house in Trowbridge (Lloyds Bank since 1866) and the east front of Dyrham Park, Gloucestershire, begun in 1700 to a design supplied by Talman in 1695. Suggests that the Trowbridge house might be the work of a local mason copying an engraving of Dyrham Park in the 1717 Vitruvius Britannicus. This is questioned however, owing to the logic and consistency of the the Trowbridge facade.
