Excerpt from An Attempt to Determine the Exact Character of Elizabethan Architecture: Illustrated by Parallels of Dorton House, Hatfield, Longleate, and Wollaton, in England, and the Palazzo Della Cancellaria, at Rome
But in England, where the Gothic had so long obtained, it could scarcely be expected but that some portions of that style would insinuate itself into designs, which, though probably composed and in part executed by Italians, must, in many in stances, have been entrusted to the superintendence of native artists. These are, however, exceptions to the true character of the style, which admits no fiature of Gothic into its composition: its elements are entirely drawn from Roman examples, and every moulding is essentially Roman in its curvature.
Among the most celebrated mansions erected in England, in the above-named style and period, and which now exist, are Lon gleate in Wiltshire, Wolls ton H all in Nottinghamshire, parts of Hatfield House, in Hertfordshire, Longford Castle, Wilt shire, Audley End, Essex, and Dorton House, in Buckinghamshire; while a chimney-piece in Wind sor Castle, and the screens of the Middle Temple and Gray's Inn exhibit specimens of the style, asapplied to interior decoration. These examples may be re garded as models of Elizabethan, founded on the Cinque Cento of Italy, and with no trace of the Gothic, which it superseded.
