As a result of my consideration of the architectural control on the vassals' residence in the Hagi Clan after the middle of the 18^<th> century. I observed the following: 1 It followed the outlines which had been established at about the middle of the 18^<th> century, and, not greatly changed, was "specified", or adapted, to each respective case through the specific interpretation of the outlines. 2 In the Hagi Clan, through the frequent opinion exchanges between "metsuke-gata", or administrators of the construction business, and the high ranking officials of the Clan over the interpretation of the outlines of the architectural control, it was gradually "specified" to each case.
