Montague House

Categories: Architecture

Named after the first Duke of Montagu, it was the amalgamation of two late-seventeenth century houses with the addition of Park Corner House. The residence of Caroline of Brunswick, queen consort to King George IV from 1801 to 1813. Demolished in 1815, all that remains is a bath reputedly used by the queen.
