Design for a farm building, 1773, unexecuted (2)

Though this farm building and farm yard were not executed, they are, according to King, 'Adam's best wooden/thatched offices'. The building is in a rustic style which Adam used regularly for buildings within the parks of country houses, and tree-trunk columns were characteristic in this sort of rustic building. Bolton suggests that the circular room at the back of the farm building might have been intended as a dairy, as he was presumably thinking of the circular dairy designed by Adam for Croome Court, although there is no evidence of this.
