SOMERSET HOUSE, a palace I have never seen in all my wandering. It kept coming up in conversations on my last trip home. So curiosity set in. Wikipedia states that Somerset House is a large Neoclassical building situated on the south side of the Strand in central London, overlooking the River Thames, just east of Waterloo Bridge. The building, on the site of a Tudor palace, was designed by Sir William Chambers in 1776, and further extended with Victorian wings to the east and west in 1831 and 1856 respectively. The East Wing forms part of the adjacent Strand campus of King’s College London. It’s on my to-do list! Photo from @LONDON on Instagram. #behousedesign #findinghome
