Thanks so much for this clarification Mikeoz, you've cracked the code... I would not have guessed the right side of "chi" and was confused by the bottom half of "e". Wang Yanzhou 王延周 used the pen name 鹅池, and initially went by 州元, which is how he is signed here. Supposedly he worked during the Qianlong reign and into the Jiaqing reign. However the only other example of his work I find online was a similar fan of buildings in landscape auctioned by Poly that has rather different looking calligraphy, so it's not clear this one (or that one) is a genuine example by Wang,though this looks reasonable to me and if genuine should be 1800.
