Editing Tuscan order (section)

==Later spread==
A relatively rare church in the Tuscan order is [[St Paul's, Covent Garden]] by [[Inigo Jones]] (1633).  According to an often repeated story, recorded by [[Horace Walpole, 4th Earl of Orford|Horace Walpole]], Lord Bedford gave Jones a very low budget and asked him for a simple church "not much better than a barn", to which the architect replied "Then you shall have the handsomest barn in England".<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=daFrAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA275|page=275|title=Anecdotes of painting in England|first1=Horace|last1= Walpole|first2=George|last2= Vertue|publisher=J.

In a typical usage, at the very grand [[Palladian]] house of [[Wentworth Woodhouse]] in Yorkshire, which is mainly Corinthian, the stable court of 1768 uses Tuscan.  Another English house, [[West Wycombe Park]], has a [[loggia]] facade in two storeys with Tuscan on the ground floor and Corinthian above. This recalls Palladio's [[Palazzo Chiericati]], which uses Ionic over Doric.

The [[Neue Wache]] is a Greek Revival guardhouse in [[Berlin]], by [[Karl Friedrich Schinkel]] (1816).  Though in most respects the Greek temple frontage is a careful exercise in revivalism, there are minimal plain bases to the thick fluted columns and, despite having [[metope (architecture)|metope]] reliefs and a large group of sculpture in the pediment, there are no triglyphs or guttae.  Nonetheless, despite these "Tuscan" aspects, the overall impression is strongly Greek and it is rightly always described as "Doric".

Tuscan is often used for doorways and other entrances where only a pair of columns are required, and using another order might seem pretentious.  Because the Tuscan mode is easily worked up by a carpenter with a few planing tools, it became part of the [[vernacular architecture|vernacular]] [[Georgian architecture|Georgian style]] that lingered in places like [[New England]] and [[Ohio]] deep into the 19th century. In gardening, "carpenter's Doric" which is Tuscan, provides simple elegance to gate posts and fences in many traditional garden contexts.
