Demolished in 1937, along with 20 neighbouring houses, 17 Bruton Street was replaced with Berkeley Square House which was considered Europe’s largest office block and one of London’s first major reinforced concrete buildings.

It was taken to Westminster Abbey by a chariot with particularly “large, strong wheels”, drawn by eight horses draped in purple, where it was then carried inside by no less than 14 men. Some even claim the coffin didn’t fit inside the Stuart vault, under the floor at the south aisle of Henry VII’s chapel, and that other royal coffins had to be moved to accommodate it.
