Are we 100% sure that what we are seeing in the demolition photo of Miller's Court IS indeed Miller's Court and not the court behind Numbers 28 & 29 Dorset Street?
Thanks

I've seen much higher-res versions of that print that make it pretty clear that we're dealing with Miller's Court. Sorry I don't have a copy that I can post... perhaps someone else has?
Simon, that is astonishing! Thanks
What else have you got that would help me stop making all the mistakes I've made with these models? That clear image has instantly shown me lots of areas of my current model are wrong on many counts! (goddamit!).
Oh! and those chimneys! with the extra wide chimney breast! a piece of the puzzle that I was missing!
Have you got any more that you'd be willing to share with me?

With due respect to Simon Wood, the roof tiles and roof structure don't look right. The substantial building across the street doesn't look right. But what do I know? To me, this looks to be wrong for Dorset Street, even possibly wrong for London. Paris maybe?

I count 9(?) chimneys, would this mean that there are 9 rooms inside of No. 26? And, with the chimneys being along that far wall in the photo, does that indicate all of the rooms were situated along that far wall too? (Wondering if I have to rethink the placement of the staircase)
In the fab high def image we can clearly see the court is derelict and in the process of being demolished. Why are the chimney pots smoking?

The 8 chimneys suggest that 10 x 12 feet might be a standard room size.
Reckon the ninth is next door.
The front door on Dorset Street and the one nailed shut in 13 Miller's Court implies a passage through the whole house,so the staircase would be offset by at least 5 feet.
Thanks for the 'photo Simon. It also places that pesky lamp post.
Yes, it would seem like it might be a mistake.
I have a few (dozen) more questions regarding that hi-def image but I have to wait til i'm home to annotate the image with my queries. Also I'm reviewing and remodelling my 3D model due to the errors I have made in light of this hi-def shot. My roof and attic and a few other areas were way off.
This model is in constant state of flux at the minute!
Onward!
PS: Dave, what's your current opinion on the stairs in 26?
Incidentally , the 3 floors on the Goad map is most likely a clerical mistake.

Suspect the staircase was for more than Prater's room.
Her testimony is curious.
13 had lining boards and the passageway door nailed shut.
Thought there would be a wall behind the boards.
Yet the partition was thin?
Was the house built for weavers?
Dorset Street looks like it.
