Most of the contents of this file have been rehoused from ring binders and other containers. The contents of some original containers required more than one folder. Where the original container was labelled with a description, the details have been transcribed onto the new folder. Photographic prints relating to the progress of the St Stephen's Cathedral project have been rehoused in Album 2. Photographic prints of the Pugin Chapel as built, taken by Richard Stringer in 1999, have been rehoused in Album 3 of Series F.
