HS 1303 - Letter Paper of Cheltenham Proprietary College, engraved by J. Shury, 16 Charterhouse Street, London
James Wilson Esqr. F.S.A., Architect. Ms note by Charles Jermingham: ‘There can be no doubt that this great building cost large sums: yet there is about it no smack of antiquity. An F.S.A. should have known much better how to imitate the stile of a middle age! There is too much lightness of pediment, too much window, too much gingerbread turretting!’ Split on central fold.
