Summary
| Description |
English: The square was laid out c1765, this is all the Georgian that remains, but it is not to be sniffed at for the larger five-bay building is Home House, Robert Adam's finest surviving town house, built in 1773-76 for the Countess of Home, and now a private members' club (which seems to have expanded into the neighbouring houses). The interiors are the real delight here, but the exterior has Coade stone panels with festoons. Grade I listed.
Number 21, nearer the camera, was designed by James Adam and built c1772 (altered later). For many years it housed the RIBA drawings collection. Grade I listed.
