 c04
Identifier: Sub-Series 8

Scope and Contents

Contains landscape plans by W.H. Manning for an unidentified house on Alnwick Rd., Robert Glenn's residence, Academy property, a proposed building plan for the Academy and plan for buildings and grounds connected with the orchards and chicken plant.

Most others are small architectural linens for Cairnwood. There is no architect listed, but they are almost definitely done by Carrere and Hastings as they are of finish level detail. They likely date from 1894-5, but could possibly be as early as 1893.
