Abstract
Visitors to the Royal Society’s present home, its seventh, at Carlton House Terrace have often asked, ‘What was this before the Society moved here?’ or ‘Who used to live here?’. A useful starting-point for answers to these questions is the chapter on ‘Carlton House Terrace and Carlton Gardens’ in the Survey of London , vol.XX, published by the London County Council in 1940 (pp. 77-87). Its list of occupants forms the basis of the fuller listing at the end of this paper. The paper also both draws on and supplements the illustrated articles on Carlton House Terrace published at the time of the Society’s move here, in Notes and Records of the Royal Society 22, 20-36 (1967) and 23, 1-13 (1968).
