Board of Trade and Privy Council Office, 68-72 Whitehall, London: the entrance vestibule by Soane

NOTES: Soane was commissioned by the Office of Works to provide a series of new public buildings for Whitehall. He set up about the reconstruction of the old Board of Trade Office from 1823-1827. Much of Soane's work was later destroyed or partially reconstructed by Charles Barry in 1845, but interiors survive of the basement stair, entrance vestibule, ante-room and the Privy Council Chamber.
