They don’t build like that nowadays, I marvel at the skills of the bricklayers and carpenters who created all of those curves/circles/arches, not forgetting the architect who designed it in the first place.
Then to see the more recent change, carried out with little consideration to the original style as shown in your third image. Rough and ready springs to mind.
You've documented the architecture very well GaryPeter

Fantastic images of a great looking building.
A square/rectangular window would have done but some nice design was employed.
