Cloister Court 1854
Cloister Court, looking SE, 1854 May 1, by Rock & Co
Comparison with Le Keux's print
of 1842 shows the following changes:
- Above the Hall appear the louvre and dinner bell tower of 1846 by Dawkes.
- The Hall windows had tracery added in 1846 by Dawkes.
The Hall windows would be heightened, with new tracery, in 1858-59, and
battlements would be added.
Published by Rock & Co of London, No 2430. Dated 1 May 1854.
- [The date of 1 May 1854 on the print leads to a bizarre error
in the Pictorial History of Queens' College, by Browne &
Seltman. They attribute the engraving to an L. May, having misread
the date as a signature].
