EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1910s, showcases the Berkeley Hotel on Piccadilly in London, with the entrance gates to Devonshire House prominently featured in the foreground. The Berkeley Hotel, located at the corner of Piccadilly and Berkeley Street, was a luxurious establishment that once attracted high-profile guests from around the world. In the foreground of the image, the ornate gates of Devonshire House stand tall and proud, providing a glimpse into the grandeur of a bygone era. Devonshire House, a historic mansion that once belonged to the Duke of Devonshire, was demolished in 1924. However, the gates survived the demolition and now serve as an entrance to Green Park, one of London's most beloved public spaces. The history of this location is rich and intriguing. The wine cellar of Devonshire House, which once housed an impressive collection of fine wines, is now the ticket office of Green Park underground station. The gates, a testament to the past, provide a fascinating link between the past and the present. The photograph captures the elegance and charm of the Berkeley Hotel and Devonshire House, which once stood side by side on Piccadilly. The image invites us to imagine the grand balls and lavish parties that were once held within the walls of Devonshire House, and to appreciate the enduring history of this iconic London location.
