llar within the buttery, which may serue for a Larder. _I._ The Buttery. _K._ The Kitchin, in whose range may be placed a bruing lead, and conuenient Ouens, the bruing vessels adioyning. _L._ The Dairy house for necessary businesse. _M._ The Milke house. _N._ A faire sawne pale before the formost court. _O._ The great gate to ride in at to the hall dore. _P._ A place where a Pumpe would be placed to serue the offices of the house. {Illustration: This figure signifieth the dores of the house.} {Illustration: This figure signifieth the windowes of the house.} {Illustration: This figure signifieth the Chimnies of the house.} Now you shall further vnderstand that on the South side of your house, you shall plant your Garden and Orchard, as wel for the prospect thereof to al your best roomes, as also because your house will be a defence against the Northerne coldnesse, whereby your fruits will much better prosper.
