Lansdowne House, Berkeley Square

 

Built in 1765 buy the Earl of Bute, and then sold to William Petty, the the future Marquis of Lansdowne for £22,000, Lansdowne House and its gardens occupied the entire southern side of Berkeley Square. While some elements of the original house still stand, the twenty first-century building is much altered away from the Georgian original, and is now known as Fitzmaurice House.
