 preface. 
 
 T HE Cuflom which has rendered it in a meafure neceffary to introduce Works which are intenc e 
 to engage the Attention of the World by a Prefatory Difcourfe, though in .tfelf a fufficient 
 Reafon for adopting fuch a Mode, is not the principal Motive that influenced the Author of thefe Defigns 
 to ufe this Ceremony with the Public, but rather to obviate fome general Objeftions which on a 
 curfory View, might be made to the Introduction of any Thing new, on fo old a Subject as that ot 
 Architecture. 
 
 Thoucrh the Field of Science is wide, and the Arts are capable of continual Improvement; yet fome 
 there are who cannot be brought to conceive the Propriety of expatiating on them, from a Supposition 
 that they are arrived already at their Maturity; an Idea, that in conference mull preclude all the 
 Efforts of Genius, all the Exercife of Judgment; and thus equally impede every Advance, both in Theory 
 and Practice. 
 
 But fo inexhauftible is the Fund of Knowledge, fo multiform are the Branches of Science, that after 
 all our Refearches, Truth muff compel us to allow, much, very much, remains to be known ; an no 
 fooner have we diflblved one Knot than another prefents itfelf to be unravelled. This is mod clear, 
 from the Teftimony of Hiffory, and the Experience of thofe Heights of Perfe&ion at which Mankinc 
 have gradually arrived in the different Periods of fucceflive Ages. 
 
 In Effect, the fame Subject, when treated of by different Authors in various Modes, although upon 
 the felf-fame Principle, is capable of being elucidated by their refpeCtive Labors; infomuch that even 
 fome of thofe Remarks, which confldered individually, might feem to be of little Confequence, when 
 viewed conjunctively, may at once explain each other and tend to confirm the general Syftem upon 
 which they are founded. For Architecture, properly defined, is partly an Art, and partly a Science : 
 It is not founded wholly on a Syftem of Problems and Deduftions, but requires a peculiar Turn of 
 Mind ; and as it thus depends in a great Meafure on the Imagination, the Objea will continually admit 
 of farther Appropriation to its important Ends,fo that it maybe enlarged on ad infinitum. 
 
 A Convidion of thefe Truths, an Attachment to a favorite Science, and the urgent Importunity of feveral 
 refpea-able Friends, rather than any Motives of a pecuniary Nature, have induced the Author to publifh 
 the Delians contained in the following Sheets ; the Intent of which is to prefent fuch a Variety of Subjects 
 as, by an Adherence to Simplicity of Defign, and Perfpicuity of Defection, may contribute to render 
 Convenience compatible with Permanence, and Elegance with OEconomy. 
 
 How far he has fucceeded in his Aim, mull be referred to the Judgment of the impartial 
 Public to whom thefe Defigns are fubmitted, on a Prcfumption that they will not cenfure the Attempt, 
 whatever may be the Opinions entertained of the Execution. Both are confided to their Candor by the 
 Author, whofe Hopes will be fulfilled, and his Labors compenfated, if the Work fliould fo far anfwer 
 his Expeaations as to prove fubfervient to the Ends which it was calculated to accomphfli. 
 
 INTR O- 
 
( 4 ) 
 
 INTRODUCTION. 
 
 TJOW various foever the Purfuits of Mankind may be, and how different foever the Predilection of 
 A A Individuals for any of the Arts and Sciences, as confidered in the AbftraCt; yet when Opinions 
 are once reduced to Pratflice, the moft ufeful have ever obtained the Preference. 
 
 In Point of Utility, Architecture, as to its primary Inftitution, however rude, muff ftand unrivalled. 
 It has certainly a cl im to Antiquity, having engaged the Attention of Men, more or lefs, in every Age 
 of the World; though its Perfection, like that of every other Art, is to be fought for only among thofe 
 
 1, to make Convenience go hand in hand with Elegance, 
 by reducing, to certain general Rules , an Inftitution which owed its Birth, like moft others, to Ncccftity, 
 the common Parent of Invention. 
 
 The Opinions entertained of the Origin of Architecture, are various. Some are inclined to 
 ' n s, that the ri^ or of the Seafons /lift induced Men to conftruct a fort of Cabins, 
 partly under-ground ; the Roofs of which, riling above the Earth, were covered with Stubble, or fuch 
 other Materials as could farnifh a Shelter from the Inclemencies of the Weather. Improving on this Plan, 
 t! e Inhabitants of Woods and vaft Plains afterwards raifed Uprights, which, confifting of the Trunks 
 of Trees, were the Reprefentation of Columns ; the Bands that encircled them, to prevent their 
 bn: fting, being eayreftive of the Bafis and Capitals , while the Simmers laid a croft, ferved as Enlabla - 
 lures ; and the covering of the Whole, as it ended in a Point , refembled, and gave the Hint, of what 
 we term a Pediment , in our modern Buildings. 
 
 There are other Writers who contend that the Rules of Architecture were delivered from 
 Heaven to Solomon, in whofe Temple at Jerufalem were contained all the Beauties of the Greek and 
 Roman Orders; which, they fay, thofe Nations borrowed from the Egyptians, who had firft derived 
 them from the Ifraelite:, when in the Zenith of their Glory. 
 
 It is at leaft apparent that the Tyrians, according to the Teftimony of the Sacred Writers, had 
 carried the Science of Architecture a confiderable Height, before it was the Boaft of the Greeks, not-* 
 withftanding the general Idea, that all our Orders arc of Grecian Original. 
 
 After all that has been faid on this Subject, perhaps we may trace the Art of Building, properly fo 
 called, to the Third Generation of the World : For we are informed, by fo ancient a Writer as Mofes, 
 that Cain founded the City of Enoch, urged perhaps by the Motive of Self-prefervation, as well as 
 the comfortlefs Reflexion of Man’s having no regular flieltered Dwelling-Place after the Fall; and, 
 probably, taking his Pattern from the Precepts of Nature, as exhibited in the Works of the Birds of 
 Heaven. 
 
 But from whence foever this ufeful Science derived its Origin, it has always been confpicuous in 
 civilifed and refined Countries. The Arts which dawned upon Mankind from the Eaft, and after 
 travelling Afiyria, Egypt, and Paleftine, fettled at laft in the favoring Soil of Greece, from whence 
 they were transplanted to Rome, found there all the Encouragement a polifhed People could give them. 
 There, with Mufic, Poetry, Painting, and every liberal Science, Architecture was found in its 
 Perfection. With them it flouriflied, and with them it fell, and lay buried for a While beneath the 
 Ruins of a Mighty Empire. 
 
 The Night of Gothic Ignorance being happily difpelled by' the*bright Sun of Science, the Arts, 
 in confequence, revived, breaking forth again from the Eaft, a Quarter whence it then was leaft expeCted. 
 The Arabian-, once the great Contemners of the Sciences, began at length to patronife them. With 
 
 thefe 
 
( 5 ) 
 
 thefe, Architecture arofe by Degrees; though at firft, in a Style far unequal to that of Grecian Origin. 
 The Saracen Mode of Building was, at this Time, adopted in Europe, the Remains of which are yet fo 
 confpicuous in the Structures of the 15th and 14th Centuries. 
 
 Greece being immerfed in Slavery as well as Ignorance, Italy took again the lead, and became the 
 Fofter-Mother of thofe Sciences, which had before adorned Athens, and flouriflied in Rome, the envied 
 Miftrefs of the conquered World. 
 
 It was at this Period that great Geniufes, forming their Tafte upon the belt Models, and having before 
 their Eyes thofe precious Remains which had defied the Ravages of Time, and the Devaluations of 
 Barbarians, revived the old Grecian Architecture, ltudied its Rules, and digelted its Due Proportions. 
 
 The Progrefs of Architecture being thus confidered, and thefe Truths premifed, it follows, that in 
 this, as in every other Art, the firft Rudiments being attained, the Artift ought toufe his own Judgment, 
 forming himfelf on the Rules of the belt Matters, and always keeping in view thofe three Grand ObjeCts, 
 Convenience, Beauty, and Stability. In the ConftruCtion of Cities, the Extent, Soil, Form, and Situation, 
 fhould be particularly regarded. In the EreCtion of Edifices, the Foundation, Solidity, and relative 
 Dimenfions, claim peculiar Degree of Attention. In fuch of them as are intended for private Dwellings, 
 the Offices fhould be properly arranged, and removed to a due Diftance from the main Pile; and 
 above all, a proper RefpeCt ought to be had to the Rule of Proportion, by which the Beauty and 
 Perfections of Architecture, as well as of all other Arts, will ever be bell fupported. 
 
 As the Arts and Sciences are found to have in general a Sitter-like Connexion with each other, fo 
 Architecture has a Relation to many of them; infomuch that Vitruvius has mentioned no lef; titan 
 Twelve Qualifications, which he fays an Architect ought to poflefs; a Proof of the ftrong Idea he en¬ 
 tertained of this Connexion, and of that Genius which ought to animate the Artift in his Defigns, and 
 the Judgment which is neceflary to guide him in the Execution. 
 
 For Inftance; it is known that Architecture has two very different AffeCtions, Uniformity and Variety, 
 admitting not of too few, nor too many Angles, a certain Movement in the Defign being required to 
 pioduce that Senfation which arifes in the Mind, from the View of a beautiful Building. Yet this 
 confifts not in the Number of Angles, nor in the ExaCtnefs of any certain Proportion, fo much as in the 
 Aftemblage of the Parts, and Agreeablenefs of the Modification, which regulate the Dimenfions of the 
 Parts of a Building, with regard to themfelves and to the Whole. In all this it is evident that the 
 Architect mutt employ his Genius, and confult his Judgment, in order to examine the Situation and 
 EffeCt in every poffible Point of View, and to digeft his Plan accordingly. 
 
 In Conclufion;—it appears that the Orders alone are determined by the fixed Rules of Architecture; 
 the Art of Defigning is fcarcely to be reduced to any fixed Precepts; as the Knowledge of what Part 
 any Arch or Column may have, in producing the general EffeCt in a Building, has never yet been 
 demonftrated by any invariable Geometrical Rules, but ftill remains a Defideratum: Genius confiders 
 it in Theory ; in PraCtice it can only be the Fruit of Judgment, matured by Habit and conftant 
 Application.

Explanation of the following DESIGNS. 
 
 PLATE I. 
 
 Elevation of a Nobleman’s Villa. 
 
 t diverted of every Decoration, yet poffeffes fomething to recommend it to the 
 
 JL judicious Obferver. The Lines of the Strings, and of the Cornice being entire, prevent the 
 difagreeable Effect that might otherwife arife from a broken Figure. A grand Portico in the Centre, 
 
 in the fimple Grecian Style, of the Ionic Order, chiefly attracts the Attention of the Beholder. The 
 Wings are fubfervient to the Centre. The Afcent to the principal Floor is by two Flights of Stairs, 
 which conflitute the firft Accefs to the Houfe, in Order to conceal the Servants Offices; and by gaining 
 fo much in Height, give Majerty and Dignity to the Elevation. 
 
 PLATE II. 
 
 The Plan of the Principal Floor of the Villa. 
 
 This Plan comprifes a complete Range of Apartments, calculated for Convenience and Elegance, 
 and fuited to the Accommodation of a Perfon of Rank and Fortune ; the Accefs to the feveral Apart¬ 
 ments being contrived to be feparate; which by concealing the Stair Cafes, renders the Building appa¬ 
 rently larger, and more convenient. 
 
 The feveral Ufes of the Apartments are properly explained in the Plan. 
 
 PLATE III, 
 
 The Se&ion of the foregoing Villa. 
 
 This exhibits the internal Finiflnng; difplaying the Saloon, the Hall, the Breakfafting Room, &c. 
 The Method of lighting the Saloon and Stair Cafes, the Profile of the Portico and the Flight of Stairs, 
 and the Manner of framing the Roof.—Warming Machines are propofed to be fixed in the Niches of 
 the Hall and Saloon, for the Convenience of thofe Apartments; and the Flews are carried up 
 concealed in the Walls. 
 
 PLATE IV. 
 
 The Detail of the Exterior Order, and Decorations at large of the Villa. 
 
 The Diameter of the Column is divided into Sixty Minutes; and the Figures annexed in the mar¬ 
 ginal Scale, denote the Number of Minutes alloted to the Proportion of the feveral Members to which 
 they refpertively refer. The Columns are diminiflied one feventh Part of the Diameter in a regular 
 Curve; the whole Length of the Shaft, according to the Mode recommended by Nichomedes. 
 
 PLATE V. 
 
 The Cieling of the Mufic Room of the Villa. 
 
 This is intended for an Arched Cieling. It is compofed after the Ancient Grotefque Manner, con¬ 
 taining Ornaments emblematical of the Ufe of the Apartment. 
 
 The Moldings that conflitute the three principal Compartments, anfwer the Pilafters in the Section of 
 the Room; and by maintaining the Continuation of the Lines, are productive of a good Effort. 
 
( 8 ) 
 
 PLATE VI. 
 
 A Chimney Piece and Glafs Frame for the foregoing Room. 
 
 PLATE VII. 
 
 The Plan and Elevation of a Maufoleum. 
 
 This Sort of Building derives its Name from Maufolus, a King of Caria, to whom, after his Deceafe* 
 his Widow Artemilia erefted a ftately Monument, which has fince been numbered among the Wonders 
 of the World. 
 
 The Term is chiefly applied to the Burying-Places of the Ancients, which were ever held Sacred 
 and Inviolable. The Egyptians, at a Time w hen they were moll renowned for Wifdom and Science, 
 paid a particular Regard to their Sepulchres. The Burying-Places of their Kings, the Catacombs were 
 fufficient to impart an Idea of their Rcfpecl to thefe Inftitutions. 
 
 This Defign is chiefly calculated to promote fomething of the Kind above mentioned, at the prefent 
 Day. Befides thofe Erections which adorn our Temples, or other Public Edifices, it might not perhaps 
 be amifs, by Monuments of this peculiar Kind, to immortalife the Names of beloved Perfons; and 
 continually prefent at once their Memory and that of their Worthy Actions to the Minds of their 
 furviving Friends and Kindred, who might thereby be flimulated to a flronger Emulation of the Virtues 
 of their deceafed Anceftors. 
 
 PLATE VIII. 
 
 Elevation of the Principal Front of a Banqueting Houfe for public Feafls. 
 
 This Elevation exhibits Six Columns of the Ionic Order; the Intercolumnations are near three Dia¬ 
 meters, or of the Diaftyle Kind. The Afcent to the principal Floor is by a grand Flight of Stairs, 
 which leads to a magnificent Banquetting Room. 
 
 PLATE IN. 
 
 The Plan of the Principal and lower Story of the Banquetting Houfe. 
 
 The Ufe of each refpedive Apartment is explained in the Plan. 
 
 PLATE X. 
 
 The Se&ion of the Banquetting Houfe. 
 
 The Ornaments here difplayed are calculated for the Excitement of Pleafure, and a proper Dilplay of 
 Grandeur. 
 
 PLATE XI. 
 
 Elevation of a Cafmo or Box, and the Plan of the principal Story. 
 
 This Defign is calculated for a Country Retreat, or the Town Houfe of a fmall Family. 
 
 1 he Ufes of the feveral Apartments are explained in the Plan. The Servants Offices are intended 
 to be placed in the Sunk Story* 
 
 PLATE XII. 
 A Chimney Piece for the Library. 
 
 PLATE XHL 
 
 A Chimney Piece for the Eating Room. 
 
In the Central Circle appear Bacchus and Ariadne; in the Smaller are the Seafons; and in the Four 
 Oblong Pannels are reprefentcd the Rural Employments of Fifhing, Sheep-lhearing, Vintage, and Harveft. 
 
 PLATE XV. 
 
 A Gothic Temple: Defigned for the Right Honourable the Earl of Shelburne. 
 
 PLATE XVI. 
 
 A Defign for a Bridge, intended to be erefted over a River, for the Convenience of crofting from 
 one Side to the other, in a Gentleman’s Park. 
 
 PLATE XVII. 
 
 A Gateway and Porters Lodges at the Entrance of a Park. 
 
 The Roofs of the Lodges are propofed to be arched, and the Flews of the Chimney to be carried to 
 the Centre of the Lodges. 
 
 PLATE XVIII. 
 
 Defign of the Garden Front of the Offices at Stackpole Court, the Seat of John Campbell, E1cj; 
 
 PLATE XIX. 
 
 The Elevation of the Eaft Front of the Offices at Stackpole Court, and the 
 
 Plan of the Ground Story. 
 
 The Ufes of the feveral Offices are explained in the Plan. 
 
 PLATE XX. 
 
 Plan and Elevation of Surrey Chapel, in St. George’s Road, Southwark. 
 
 PLATE XXI. 
 
 The Section of Surrey Chapel. 
 
 PLATE XXII. 
 
 The Elevation of the Eaft Front, and the Plan of the principal Story of Mr. Mirehouse’s Houfe, 
 in Pembrokcffiire. 
 
 PLATE XXIII. 
 
 The Section of Mr. Mirehouse’s Houfe. 
 
 PLATE XXIV. 
 
 Plan and Elevation of a Circular Hunting Seat, intended to be executed in the County of Surrey 
 
 PLATE XXV. 
 
 Se£tion of the Hunting Seat, and the Plan of the One Pair of Stairs Story. 
 
 C 
 
( 10 )
