Abbey House, Barrow-in-Furness
Abbey House, Barrow-in-Furness in the modern county of Cumbria, formerly Lancashire, is a Neo-Elizabethan H-plan mansion built by Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1913-14 as a guest house for Vickers Ltd and a flat for the Managing Director, Sir James McKechnie. In its abstracted, military echo of the Tudor style, it prefigures the style of Lutyens' Castle Drogo.
