Robert and James Adam office drawings
- Country houses
  - Claremont Park, (Milburn house), Esher, Surrey, part executed plans, elevations and a section for the house, and elevations for a temple and a bridge (unexecuted), for John Hussey Delaval, 1st Baron Delaval, c1786 (11)

Alternative designs for the house, and designs for the east and west front, c1786, partly executed (4)

Although undated, it is possible to date this scheme to c1786, as evidence suggests the Delaval family were residing in Esher from 1787. It is thought that only the central three-bay block was ever executed, however substantial alterations and extensions to the surviving building make this difficult to ascertain.
