I think that the beauty of the house depended much on those two chimneys; on them, and on the mullioned windows with which the front of the house was closely filled.

The door, with its jutting porch, was by no means in the centre of the house.

As you entered, there was but one window on your right hand, while on your left there were three.

And over these there was a line of five windows, one taking its place above the porch.

We all know the beautiful old Tudor window, with its stout stone mullions and its stone transoms, crossing from side to side at a point much nearer to the top than to the bottom.
