Lancaster House
Stable Yard, London SW1

Overlooking Green Park at the end of the Mall, this royal residence was rebuilt for Frederick, Duke of York in 1825. 

The architect was Benjamin Dean Wyatt, who was also responsible for the Duke of Wellington's splendid home, Apsley House, No.1 London. 

Queen Victoria was much impressed by the splendour of the neo-classical mansion.  In 1848 Chopin played here for Queen Victoria, Prince Albert and the Duke of Wellington.

Today, Lancaster House is used for government receptions and conferences.

Worth a look if you are passing.
