Description
Kew Palace, which stands in the world-famous Royal Botanic Gardens in south-west London, is Britains smallest royal palace and the third building to bear that name. Built in 1631 as a merchants house, it later became the home of George III, Queen Charlotte and their large family, and a private place of recuperation for the so-called mad king during his illness.
Around the palace, the eighteenth-century royal pleasure grounds gradually evolved into the worlds centre for botanical study, shaped by Charles Bridgeman, Capability Brown and others and adorned with important garden buildings by William Chambers.
