HOUSE AT PENNSYLVANIA, EXETER, ENG. MR. JAMES CROCKER, F.R.I.B.A.,
ARCHITECT, EXETER, ENG.
This house has recently been completed for Mr. E.C. Philp, and stands in
one of the best suburbs of the city. The materials employed are
Wellington red brick for the facings above plinth, with Broseley tiles
for the roofs, the few stone dressings being of Ham Hill. The walling up
to the plinth level is of Westleigh limestone, as are also the piers
surrounding the site, with wrought-iron railing between same. The
principal chimney-pieces in the house have been made to special design,
and are chiefly executed in American walnut and pitch-pine. The
dining-room is panelled the full height up to a richly-modelled frieze
in plaster, all to design, and the ceiling of this apartment is also
panelled.
DESIGN FOR BOARD SCHOOLS. MR. GEORGE W. WEBB, A.R.I.B.A., ARCHITECT,
READING, ENG.
This design was prepared in competition for schools near London, but,
owing to a mistake in the date for sending in designs, it was too late
for the competition. The plan is on the central hall system for boys and
girls, the hall being 110 feet by 54 feet, and top-lighted. Fourteen
class-rooms, each 30 feet by 20 feet, are provided, each divided from
the central hall by movable glass screens. The infants' school, lodge,
etc., form detached buildings. The total cost was estimated at L16,000.
