As it stood in 1827
What Clarence House looked like in its prime.
A compact, four-storey town palace faced in pale render and ashlar, with a rusticated lower level of stone and smoother stucco above. Regular tall sash windows fill the façade, the ground floor punctuated by round-arched openings. A low balustraded parapet runs along the flat roofline, broken by grouped red-brick chimney stacks and a central flagstaff flying the Union Jack. Vertical quoins/pilaster lines mark the corners. The house sits directly beside greenspace and The Mall, with a paved service yard to one side.
