It seems that most craftsmen or builders for that matter don't always stick to the plans; once insitu and the reality of a build is in progress then it's almost inevitable to have to amend, change re-think how to solve particular problems. The roofline of the Sunroom seems interesting, as it is clear from the plans that this pattern or awning was prehaps planned on conception. God knows? Maybe Cynthia knows??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8042906385488172173.post-3686925775878285862009-12-16T13:19:41.517+00:002009-12-16T13:19:41.517+00:00I believe Mr. Taylor may have made the ceiling 8&#...I believe Mr. Taylor may have made the ceiling 8' instead of the 7' as on the plans. Lennon was around 5'11" - 7' would be another 13". In the shots where he's standing against the shelf being measured clearly there is more than 1' of height to the ceiling. <br /><br />Being the craftsman he was - I'm guessing he made sure it was built with the standard 8' (US) 2.4 meters of height for the ceiling.The Beatles In 3Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08433887914887238694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8042906385488172173.post-55155630783890746472009-12-16T10:54:54.479+00:002009-12-16T10:54:54.479+00:00Hi Rob.

The large glass doors probably helped in that regard too.They only used the formal dining room when entertaining guests; the rest of the time, family meals were taken in the sunroom.kenwoodlennonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00086673613903823046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8042906385488172173.post-65909727524909092042009-12-15T09:54:18.013+00:002009-12-15T09:54:18.013+00:00I don't think so, looks like it was like a con...I don't think so, looks like it was like a conservatory type building on the side of the house, overlooking the garden and pool. I think John Lennon and the whole family, including Cynthia and Julian spent a lot of time here - it was next to the kitchen, and often as can be seen from the pictures on the blog it was used as a reception room.
