  - Alnwick Castle, Northumberland: designs for interior decoration and buildings in the park for the 1st Duke of Northumberland, 1769-83 (36)

Preliminary design and record drawing for the ceiling for the circular banqueting room, 1770, thought to be as executed (2)

The ceiling in the circular banqueting room is thought to have been executed in accordance with Adam’s design, but there is no way to verify this as the entire record tower was found to be unsafe and demolished in the 1880s.
