Heading image[edit]

I do not believe a night time image is suitable as the main image at the head of the article as it is less informative than a daytime one. Lumos3 (talk) 12:06, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wellington statue moved to Aldershot?[edit]

"The Duke's equestrian statue can be seen across the busy road, cloaked and watchful, the plinth guarded at each corner by an infantryman." — I believe this is 127 years out of date. The statue was moved to Aldershot in the 1880s! See [Wellington Statue, Aldershot].

During the Interregnum newer buildings were erected between what is now Old Regent Street and Hyde Park Corner

Shouldn't that be Old Park Lane?

1805 or 1807?[edit]

The lede says Richard Wellesley, 1st Marquess Wellesley purchased the house in 1805 but the later text dates his purchase to 1807...which is correct?--71.105.190.227 (talk) 05:44, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

According to the guide book published by the V&A, 1807 is correct, I will amend it accordingly. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 08:07, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
