The drawings in this folder cover a variety of cathedrals, abbeys, churches and secular structures in Lincolnshire, and range from details of roof joints and door details to complete timber frames.
Sites depicted include: 14 St. Paul's Street in Stamford (17 photographs, drawings, and descriptive texts), and Lincoln Cathedral (41 drawings, diagrams, and descriptive texts).
