Note the cruciform floor plan of the building and the symmetry of the facade.
There are four different types of stone evident in the construction. This is the best place to admire the detail in the stone carvings on the porch - fruit, flowers, foliage and the squirrel. The surrounds of the little quatrefoils (four-lobed windows to each side of the porch) are of stone from Bath, England.
