Restoring A Famous

Home

Work on restoring Chia- wick House, once the home of the Dukes of Devonshire and one of the finest examples of the Palladian stylo in Britain, is now not expected to be completo in time for the Festival of Britain

next year.

Work started last year.

The Ministry of Works states that demolition of the wings of the main bulding has begun, and should be finished within the next few months. The wings, ' designed by James Wyatt and indded in 1708, have sometimes been criticised in out of keeping with the main house.

A Ministry' oficial said: “As additions to the original struc ture

they are of lesz historic interest." Chiswick House was built 1727-1730 by the third Earl of Burlington, art patron and armateur architect. Ho en ployed Colin Campbell and later William Kent.

In 1948, in a badly dilapidated condition, It was transferred to the nation by Middlesex County Council and Brentford and Chis- wick Borough Council by a deed of gift under the Ancient Monu- ments Acts. The consent of the local authorities hnd of the Dukn of Devonshire was given to the proposal to demolish the wings.

During the past four years excavation has added considerably to the knowledge of the prehistory and history of the Isles of Scilly. Until 1947, so little was known, apart from the multitude of megalithic and kindred architectural beauty as Inigo tombs, that it was even doubted whether the islands had been continuously inhabited from early times.
