介绍（中）	这个花岗岩和木头的门口是Chalkley Hall的前入口，这座房子以前位于宾夕法尼亚州法兰克福，靠近费城。这所房子的主要部分，包括门口，大约是1776年为费城商人亚伯·詹姆斯建造的。它附属于1723年由商人、船主和贵格会传教士托马斯·查克利建造的一个较小的下翼，他的女儿嫁给了亚伯·詹姆斯。这座房子是用从英国运来的曼彻斯特琢石建造的，标志着英国-格鲁吉亚设计在费城地区达到了顶峰。它的前立面在细节上几乎与约翰·霍克斯1767年在北卡罗来纳州新伯尔尼的总督特赖恩宫的平面图和立面图相同。虽然不可能将费城的建筑归功于霍克斯，但众所周知，就在查克利大厅建造之前，他就在费城。不管设计师是谁，Chalkley Hall的花岗岩大门都是美国最壮观的大门之一。
介绍（英）	This granite and wood doorway was the former entrance to Chalkley Hall, a house formerly located at Frankford, Pennsylvania, near Philadelphia. The main portion of the house, including the doorway, was erected in about 1776 for Abel James, a Philadelphia merchant. It was attached to a smaller, lower wing built in 1723 by Thomas Chalkley, merchant, ship owner, and Quaker missionary, whose daughter married Abel James. The house, built of cut Manchester stone brought as ballast from England, marked the culmination of English Georgian design in the Philadelphia area. Its front facade was nearly identical in detail to John Hawks' 1767 plan and elevation for Governor Tryon's Palace at New Bern, North Carolina. While it is impossible to attribute the Philadelphia structure to Hawks, it is known that he was in Philadelphia just prior to the construction of Chalkley Hall. Regardless of its designer, Chalkley Hall's granite portal is one of the most imposing in America.
