DescriptionThese records primarily comprise plans and drawings made by the architectural firm of Jethro Cossins consisting of designs for the Mason College building, the majority of which date from the 1870s and early 1880s. There are also some later drawings which relate to proposed alterations and extensions to the existing building as the college expanded its teaching activities during the 1880s and 1890s, and drawings and correspondence that are not part of this main sequence that contain information about proposed alterations to premises adjoining Mason College during the 1880s.
The series also contains printed plans of the college that were published in architectural journals 'The Architect' and 'The Builder' shortly after the opening of the college building in 1880
