THIS EVENT HAS BEEN ALLOCATED AND THERE IS A WAITING LIST

The Master is pleased to invite you to Spencer House, the only great 18th century town house to survive intact. Built between 1756 and 1766 by John Vardy and James ‘Athenian’ Stuart for the first Earl Spencer, an ancestor of Diana, Princess of Wales, Spencer House boasts the first neo-classical interiors in Europe. The house has undergone a 10-year restoration programme to return it to its former glory with its 18th century furniture, paintings and splendid rooms. We will enjoy a private guided tour.

Following the tour we will have a leisurely stroll down the Mall to the Admiralty pub where we wil enjoy a three course meal with wine
