Spencer House
Spencer House was built in 1756-66 for John, first Earl Spencer, an ancestor of Diana, Princess of Wales (1961-97). Situated in the heart of St James's, Spencer House is a short distance from St James's Palace, Buckingham Palace and the Palace of Westminster, and has a splendid terrace and garden with magnificent views of The Green Park.
The architect was John Vardy who had studied under William Kent. Vardy is responsible for the facades of the mansion. The city's only great eighteenth-century private palace to survive intact. Access by guided tour most Sundays.
