Robert and James Adam office drawings
- Country houses
  - Syon House, Brentford, Greater London: designs for the interior and the park for the 1st Duke of Northumberland, 1761-69 (69)

Designs for alternative chimneypieces for the ante room, 1762-64, Adam volume 22/39 as executed (6)

Adam volumes 22/36-41 show two attempts at making a design for the ante room chimneypiece. All three of the designs dating from 1762 were rejected, but it appears that Adam made a second attempt in 1764, and the chimneypiece was finally executed in accordance with Adam volume 22/39.

There is an engraving of the ante room chimneypiece in volume II of The works in architecture of Robert and James Adam.
