  • Archival history
    Probably deposited at Tyne and Wear Archives, Newcastle upon Tyne, during the 1970s and dispersed to other archives around that time.
  • Scope and content
    Although the drawings are not signed or dated the Newcastle connection would suggest that the drawings came from the Wood and Oakley architectural practice in Newcastle, which took over the offices of Charles Hodgson Fowler and W.H. Hood. Charles Hodgson Fowler had been the architect to Rochester Cathedral in the early 20th century and after his death in 1910 his partner W.H. Wood took over the restoration works of the Cathedral's Lady Chapel.
