Allan Adams, FSAI
Retired illustrator occasionally specialising in historical buildings, urban sketching and topographical views.
I retired from Historic England (formerly English Heritage) in 2016, having worked on a range of projects illustrating historic buildings of all periods. Much of my work included reconstruction drawings, bringing ordinary buildings back to life as well making measured drawings for record purposes. Since retirement I have turned my attention to urban sketching and topographical studies.
I have been illustrating historic buildings since 1981 creating drawn records for archive purposes, illustrating books and other publications. My long experience of illustrating historic buildings led to my election as a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London in 2008.
