The plan and elevation entitled "for Mr. Willm Powell" (Fig. [224]) have not been identified with any existing building. The elevation is treated more after the English manner, particularly in regard to the gables, than any of the preceding. In the plan the hall is frankly made an entrance hall, without any attempt at making it a living-room. It still occupies a central position, but there are no screens, no daïs, and no bay window. The rooms are all named: the family side includes the dining parlour—now so named for the first time—a "lodging," and an "inner lodging." The opposite wing contains the winter parlour, the buttery, now attached to the servants' entrance, the "survay," or serving place, the kitchen, and larder. The house would seem to be built of wood and plaster, since all the walls are drawn some 6 inches thick, the fireplaces only being of the ordinary thickness.

The plan for "Mr. Johnson ye Druggyst" (Fig. [225]) shows a further variation of the hall, which here has a screen and passage at each end. The daïs idea has entirely disappeared, and the bay windows are placed for effect only: the central position is still retained, as also are the two wings, divided into the usual rooms. There are two front doors, one to each passage at the ends of the hall. The buttery occupies the old relation to one of these passages, while the other takes up the space which would formerly have been devoted to the daïs. The relation to each other of the several rooms in the two wings follows the old lines; it is in the hall that the essential change appears. A note on the plan says that the gallery, 80 feet long and 15 feet wide, occupies the whole length of the front façade, in the centre of which is a turret; there is also a turret in the middle of each side, over the two staircases. The small sketch at the side of the finished plan should be noticed, as it is another instance of how the draughtsman jotted down a rough variation of the same general disposition of rooms. There is also a sketch for a mullion.
