A Chronological List of
Sir John Soane’s Building Projects This list is of the principal architectural works of Sir John Soane. It does not include student projects such as the Triumphal Bridge, nor does it list the many buildings Soane surveyed for leases or for legal cases. Also excluded are the many smaller works which were simply repairs to existing buildings. The date under which a project first appears is the date when Soane started work on the commission. Subsequent building campaigns on the same site are listed in this first entry. Each entry is arranged in the following way - Location/Client/nature of works/outcome To save space the following abbreviations are used: unex.............. alts...................alterations unex.................unexecuted dem..................demolished exts...................extensions ?........................not known exec..................executed Standard County abbreviations are used: Sq.....................Square Pl......................Place St......................Street Where the archives left by Soane are not conclusive, or where the physical evidence has been demolished or rebuilt the extent of Soane’s contribution or even if the work was executed at all, is sometimes unclear. The use of ‘dem’ implies that the work was executed and demolished. ‘House dem’ means that it is not known if the Soane work was executed and the building has been demolished. Sometimes Soane’s designs were executed by a local builder and so what was built is a local interpretation of Soane’s drawings. ‘Executed’ does not imply the survival of all or part of a building. ‘Remodelled’ implies a major remodelling of the building, from which the Soane work may or may not have survived. It must also be stressed that this list is not the final word on the subject. New discoveries are still being made, especially where Soane work has survived subsequent remodelling. Sadly there are still cases where Soane work is being demolished, such as in 1997 at Colomberie House, St. Hellier, C.I., or remodelled as at Cricket St. Thomas, Somerset (1998/9). Vigilance is clearly still needed. This list owes much to the pioneering lists by Dorothy Stroud and Sir Howard Colvin and also to the continuing work of my colleagues at the Museum. I am especially grateful to Ptolemy Dean, who read this list when it was in draft form, and made many helpful suggestions. His book ‘Sir John Soane and the Country Estate’, London 1999, provides an illustrated gazetteer of Soane’s country house practice. 1779 Kingston Hall (Kingston Lacy), Dorset/ Henry Bankes the Younger/ alts / unex 1780 Downhill, Co.
