    - Conduit Street, London, (unknown number), designs for a house, offices, and a garden porch, for Sir John Hussey Delaval, 1st Baron Delaval, possibly executed, c1786 (11)

Purpose

Preliminary design for a garden porch, possibly executed, c1786 (1)

Notes

This preliminary design for a garden porch for Lord Delaval compares to Adam’s Conduit Street section and elevation for the colonnade and offices building (Adam volumes 35/94-95). With its similar use of tapering pilasters surmounted by herms, the design is likely part of this scheme.
