Notes: Brettingham the Elder was a follower of William Kent and was involved with Kent in the designs for Holkham Hall. The designs for Holkham were ultimately Kent's, in spite of Brettingham's later claims that the the great Norfolk palace was the result of his work. Brettingham did produce original plans for Kedleston Hall.

Notes: One of the most important 18th century British architects, James Wyatt was born in Staffordshire in 1746 and received significant recognition in 1770 for the Pantheon (now destroyed), a theater on Regent Street that was modeled after the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Wyatt's interiors at Heavingham Hall in Suffolk are among his most significant designs, but his most famous work was Fonthill Abbey, the Gothick extravaganza he created for William Beckford in the Wiltshire countryside. He also began the Wyatt dynasty of architects, the most notable member of whom was probably his nephew, Jeffry Wyatt (later Wyatville).

Notes: Wyatville (originally Wyatt) was the son of Joseph Wyatt and trained as an architect in the London office of his uncle, Samuel Wyatt, followed, in 1792, by work with another uncle, the more famous James Wyatt. After 1799 he setup his own practice, and, by the 1820s, was one of the leading English architects. The pinnacle of Wyatville's career was his transformation of Windsor Castle (between 1824 and 1840) for George IV. On Aug 12, 1824 George IV, by royal license, authorized the architect to change his surname from Wyatt to Wyatville. In 1828 Wyatville was knighted.
