Greenwich Hospital Brickwork Costs and Plumbers Offer
A dated critique of Greenwich Hospital construction costs details brick and lime quantities, labor wages, and waste. It compares prices to Pauls School and St Pauls efforts, notes contractor savings, and recounts lead pricing debates with the Plumbers Company offering milld and rolled lead at different rates. The piece condemns perceived public mismanagement and urges prudent spending for sailors’ health, closing with references to contemporary medical and political works.
