Robert and James Adam office drawings
- Country houses
  - Lowther Hall and village, Penrith, Cumberland: designs for a model village, and unexecuted designs for rebuilding Lowther Hall, a dairy, banqueting house, gateway and stables for Sir James Lowther, 5th Baronet, 1766-71 and 1785 (41)
    - Lowther Hall estate buildings

Preliminary designs and finished drawings for a banqueting house, 1785, unexecuted (7)

None of Adam's designs for Lowther Hall or its estate buildings were executed.

The banqueting house was intended to be located a few miles to the east of Lowther Hall, overlooking Ullswater. It would have been too far from the house to walk, explaining the necessity of a porte cochère for carriages.
