Purpose

Record drawing for a ceiling, 1762, unexecuted (1)

Notes

The rectangular shape of this ceiling does not fit either of Adam's proposed new rooms seen in his plan (Adam volume 31/112): the oval ante room, and the octagonal dining room. According to Bolton this ceiling was possibly intended for a passage within an older part of the house, though it was not executed.
