Robert and James Adam office drawings
- Country houses
  - Harewood House, Yorkshire: designs for alterations to the church and house; for the interior decoration; and for a greenhouse and gateway for Edwin Lascelles, 1759-1782 (121)
    - Designs for the interior decoration of the house, including the hall, music room, saloon, dining room, gallery, library, bed rooms, dressing rooms, great staircase and portico soffit, 1765-1778 (107)

Preliminary design, and alternative designs, and record drawing for the ceiling for the library (now the old library), 1765-66 (4)

Although Adam volume 11/136 is a duplicate office copy of Adam 11/135 it is clear that they are by two different draughtsmen. Moreover, there is a minor discrepancy in the form of the rosettes between the two drawings.

Adam volume 11/137 shows the executed design which survives with its medallions by Biagio Rebecca.
