NOTES: Nos 10 and 11 originally date from the late 17th century (1670s-1680s), but were substantially rebuilt by William Kent from 1732-1735 when the buildings became part of the Office of Works, for which Soane was the attached architect. Soane carried out alterations on the two properties from 1824-1826.

NOTES: The original scheme for this room was by Sir John Soane in 1827, who designed a starfish shaped vault for the ceiling. This was subsequently stripped out at the behest of Sir Charles Grevill, Clerk of the Privy Council. The room was later 'restored' by Barry, who reset Soane's design of the ceiling rose, ensured that his original oak panelling was repaired and that his grey marble fireplaces were left in situ.

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.

NOTES: Built circa 1589, as lodge to the Great House of Sir John Young (destroyed 1863), now a museum. It was altered circa 1720 and restored in the early 20th century by Charles Frederick William Dening (1876-1952). See RIBA161739 for a colour version of this image.
