There seems to be a small, separate room where the numbr 23 is, with its own door. Is this so?
Nice work anyway!

Zoltan , good progress, I also wonder about the doors that are on the drawing?

 

[zoly99sask]

Thanks guys, yes there are doors on the drawings,I will have to cut that out soon.

​

 

[NMBROOK]

Looking good.By my interpretation of the drawing,the little room Janos mentioned is the 'head' or latrine.

Kind Regards

Nigel

G'day Zoly.
She's coming on fine memattie. Regarding what Janos has mentioned: it appears to be two small room on each side. the port side it looks like a toilet because it has an oval marked on the seat. The starboard side could be a dressing room or something.
