PLATE IX. 
Lontains two transverse sections, through the Shed and Stove. That at A, is through the store 
room, (seen furnished with shelves for flower roots, &c.) and that part of the stove opposite to it, in 
which is seen the difference of the levels between the back and front walk ; theformer being raised 
for the purpose of giving a full view of the pit, and all the house ; as nothing can have a worse effect 
than having it low, for all view is then limited to looking straight forward or upward ; and the house, 
though ever so well formed and furnished, is seen to great disadvantage. The columns are seen on 
the front, and back wall of the pit; and are necessary, as well for beauty as utility, in all large stoves 
of this description. 
B, section, through both stove and shed, the depth of the furnace and descent to it seen, in the shed. 
In the stove, the steps from the back, to the front walk are seen. The dip of the front flue 
un der the entrance, and its ascent in the back wall, marked by dotted lines. 
N. B. This dip is what was referred to in the explanation of Plate V.
