It appeared to them as

well from their own view as from the Report of Mr. Rogers the

Surveyor that the same is all in a very decayed ruinous condition

except the Foundations which upon inspection appeared to be

perfectly Sound and of sufficient dimensions both in depth and

thickness, The great inconveniency and want of room so much

complained of by several of the Magistrates, have likewise been
<

</

considered by the Committee and it appears to them that they
<

</

arise from an improper distribution in the forming of the several

parts of the present building whereby too great a share of the

business is necessarily confined to the ground flour and too small a

part to the upper Floor
