A RUSTIC WINDOW, SUITABLE FOR A GARDEN-HOUSE OR COTTAGE. 
DESIGNED BY MR. M. SAUL, OF LANCASTER.

Herewith I send a drawing of my garden-room window, which I 
have lately erected, and which has a very pleasing effect, both from the 
garden and the public road. Thinking it might be worthy a place in 
the Horticultural Register, I forward it with the hope that others may 
be induced to admit rustic ornament for both doors and windows in 
garden architecture. 
A very slight inspection of the sketch will give a sufficiently clear 
idea of the construction and appearance of the window. I selected the 
most curled and knotty pieces for the uprights, 1, 1, 1, and cross 
pieces, 2, 2, 2. The sash frame is made wider, to receive the width of 
the uprights and cross pieces, and which are about five inches in 
diameter. The shuts and slides are made in the usual way : the 
squares are formed with narrow lead, and in squares, in the same way 
as if they were one piece of glass ; and by so doing, it is stronger than 
if it were all lead. The parts 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, being painted black, 
makes it appear all lead.
