Summary

[edit]
Description
English: H. R. Millar's 5th illustration to the original edition of Rudyard Kipling's Puck of Pook's Hill, from the chapter "Young Men at the Manor": "'Sir Richard, will it please you enter your Great Hall?'". Note: While not as far from right angles as #4 in the set, this still isn't very rectangular. It would be misleading to fix.
