Rochester;" which paper is printed, with four plates, in the Archæologia, vol. xi. pp. 317-374. In 1799 Mr. Clarke published a pamphlet, entitled " Observations on the Intended Tunnel beneath the River Thames, shewing the many Defects in the present state of that Projection." 4to. (reviewed in Gent. Mag. vol. LXIX. p. 1056.) Mr. Clarke had written on the subject in the Magazine during the previous year, vol. LXVIII. p. 565: see also vol. LXX. p. 200. The project was that of Mr. Dodd, for a Tunnel under the Thames at Gravesend. A few years after, Mr. Clarke was removed, in the employ of the Ordnance, to Guernsey, and some" Observations on Crosses," dated from that island 7th June, 1806, are printed in Britton's Architectural Antiquities, vol. I.; "Observations on Round Churches," dated Guernsey, 7th June, 1807, occur in the same volume. And we also find "An Attempt to ascertain the Age of the Church of Barfreston, in Kent, with Remarks on the Antiquity of that Building," by Mr. Clarke, dated London, 1812, printed in vol. IV. of that work, pp. 4151. These passages are supplementary to Mr. Britton's history and description of the same subjects. The last essay by Mr. Clarke with which we are acquainted, is "The Rise and Progress of early English Architecture," prefixed to "Architectura Ecclesiastica Londini," a series of views of the Churches of London, published in large quarto, 1820.
