This leaf was not noticed or numbered by Finberg, and as it bears traces of gum or adhesive may have once been laid down; see note to the recto (D07128; Turner Bequest CV 91) for its discovery in a batch of ‘loose leaves’. It is now bound as 8 verso of the sketchbook, rejoining its continuation on folio 9 (D06990; Turner Bequest CV 7) to form a double-page spread of Tabley House from the Moat.
