‘Statement of Cost / Buildings &c Rochestown / Monastery’, prepared by Cork architect Samuel F. Hynes and dated 8 August 1906. The ledger states a primary contract subtotal of £4,423 18s. 10d. comprised of a core building contract to Messrs. E. & P. O’Flynn (£3,546), a plumbing contract (£339 14s. 0d.), an apparatus installation contract (£497 4s. 10d.), and costs for a porch ramp and associated works (£41). The statement further documents subsequent variations and structural extras, adding £479 for heating extras and £20 for apparatus testing, which yields a final construction balance of £4,922 18s. 10d. The document concludes with administrative instructions noting that the architect’s standard 5% professional fee must be added to the final total.
