Building in Mount Street
Description
View of the front and side elevations of a grand house at 54 Mount Street, Mayfair, at the corner of Park Street. The building has four storeys plus basement and dormered attics. It has an entrance in a grand, full-height projection to Mount Street at the right. The building is in brick with stone decoration and Arts and Crafts workmanship. It is six-windows wide at the front and two-windows wide to Park Street. Railings surround the basement area. At the far left is an estate agent's sign at the corner reading: "Grosvenor House, with about 2-1/4 acres, on building lease or the freehold might be treated for." Dating from 1896-97 and designed by Fairfax Blomfield Wade-Palmer for Lord Windsor (later Earl of Plymouth), 54 Mount Street was Grade II* listed in 1970; listing number 1223620. The house was taken as his home by Prince Arthur of Connaught (1883-1938), a grandson of Queen Victoria and former governor general of South Africa, after his marriage to his cousin, Princess Alexandra of Fife, on 15 October 1913.
