Montagu-House, Whitehall, the residence of the Duke of Buccleuch, 1864. Creator: Unknown
Montagu-House, Whitehall, [London], the residence of the Duke of Buccleuch, 1864. We give a View of the river front of this noble mansion, the exterior of which is now almost complete, having taken about five years in building. The architect is Mr. W. Burn, of No. 6, Stratton-street, Piccadilly; the contractors, Messrs. Holland and Hannen. The edifice is in the Franco-Italian style, with those tall, steep roofs which may often be seen in the old chateaux of some provinces of France, and which have been imitated in the Louvre and elsewhere in modern times. The building is entirely faced with Portland stone. Its extreme length is 176 ft. including the out-buildings; but the main portion of the house is 144 ft. in length by 88 ft. in width; and the extreme height is about 90 ft. to the summit of the elevated roofs above each wing. The whole structure has a stately and imposing aspect, befitting the residence of a peer of the highest rank'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
