'Brick Gate House for a Royal Hunting Lodge in St. James's', c1935. St James's Palace on Pall Mall in the City of Westminster, central London, was commissioned by King Henry VIII. It became the official London residence of the monarch in 1698, but lost that status after being damaged by fire in 1809. Mainly built between 1531 and 1536 in red-brick, it remains the London residence of several members of the royal family. From "Wonderful London, Volume 2", edited by Arthur St John Adcock.
