46 Berkeley Square
46 Berkeley Square

46 Berkeley Square is a house on Berkeley Square in the Mayfair district of London, England. The house was used as offices, including the London headquarters of the Chase Manhattan Bank, for several decades. It has been the site of the private member's club Annabel's since 2018. It was built in 1744–50 as part of a pair of town houses with No. 45; the two houses are jointly listed listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England. The architect is believed to have been Henry Flitcroft. 46 Berkeley Square was the town residence of the Earl of Darnley, with their country residence Cobbham Hall near Gravesend in Kent. It was subsequently the London residence of the Mildmay family.The house was used as offices from 1948. It became the London headquarters for the Chase Manhattan Bank. No. 46 was put up for auction in October 1967 along with its mews house, 46 Hays Mews. The house was sold in June 1968, with a value £330,000 (equivalent to £6,088,641 in 2021) being quoted for the remaining 70 years of the lease. It was known as Ralli House in the 1970s and hosted lunches celebrating the Bowater-Ralli Fellowship in Surgery.The freehold to 45 and 46 Berkeley Square is owned by the Berkeley Square Holdings Group. The group is owned by the President of the United Arab Emirates and is registered in the tax haven of the British Virgin Islands.46 Berkeley Square has been occupied by the private member's club Annabel's since 2018. Annabel's relocated to No. 46 from No. 44 Berkeley Square, where it had been founded by Mark Birley in 1963. In 2007 Birley sold Annabel's and his four other clubs to the businessman Richard Caring. Caring spent £55 million refurbishing No. 46, and Annabel's reopened there in 2018. The club occupies 26,000 sq ft of No. 46 with various restaurants, bars, private dining rooms and a nightclub. A spa is located in the mews house. The interiors were redesigned and decorated by Martin Brudnizki Design Studio.

Dartmouth House

Dartmouth House is a Georgian house in Mayfair, central London, England. It now serves as the headquarters of the English-Speaking Union (ESU), an educational charity. It is located at 37 Charles Street, southwest of Berkeley Square. Over 40,000 people use the building each year.The original building was constructed in the mid 18th-century; what today comprises Dartmouth House was two separate residences, numbers 37 and 38 Charles Street. The first owner of number 37 was Henry Herbert, 2nd Earl of Carnarvon, from 1757 to 1776. In 1870, the banker Edward Baring bought both properties and on his creation as Baron Revelstoke in 1885, he converted the two houses into one to house his collection of French antique furniture and art. He remodelled and refurbished the house in a French Rococo style. There is a painted ceiling by Pierre-Victor Galland above the grand staircase. However, a crisis at Baring Brothers and Co Bank meant that spending on the buildings was curtailed and all building and design work ceased. Many of Lord Revelstoke's furnishings and objects d’art had to be sold at auction, although he continued to live here until his death in 1897. The next owner, William Legge, 6th Earl of Dartmouth, made the most significant changes to the interior of the house in 1900, with the creation of the Long and Small Drawing Rooms. The house was used as the Dartmouth family home until the outbreak of war in 1914, when it was used by the British Red Cross as a military hospital. It was sold again in 1918 to the Hon. Mrs Robert Lindsay. Dartmouth House was purchased by the English-Speaking Union in 1926 for the sum of £45,000 from the Hon. Mrs Robert Lindsay. It was formally opened as the London Headquarters of the ESU by the Prime Minister, Sir Stanley Baldwin, on the 22 February 1927. Today, Dartmouth House is an important heritage building in Mayfair, designated a Grade II* listed building.
