The image depicting Herstmonceux is the work of Henry Hollamby. Images of Herstmonceux produced in two versions, one with additional detail of lclouds in the background. In the opinion of Rockley, this is the superior version as the clouds detract from the architectural design. The underside has a Thomas Barton label. This is not uncommon, designs were traded between the producers.
