Purpose
Design for a chimneypiece for the front drawing room, 1769, executed with alterations (1)
Signed and dated
- 1769
Notes
A much simplified version of Adam's design for the front drawing room chimneypiece was installed in the room.
There is no surviving drawing for the chimneypiece in the adjacent back drawing room, but this does appear to be by Adam.
Both Adam chimneypieces from the front and back drawings rooms were stolen from the house in 1996.
