Scope and content
Original bundle of deeds (mainly copies and drafts) and documents relating to 40 Lowndes Street, p. St George Hanover Square, Middlesex. In 1843 the parcel of land was let by William Lowndes of Cheshunt, Buckinghamshire, esq., to William Turton Newton and John Kelk of Cavendish Square, builders, for 86 years. The following year they sold the house that they had built to Henry William Barnard, lieutenant-colonel in the 1st Regiment of Grenadier Guards. After divers assignments of the residue of the term of years (including the will of Rev. William Midleton Snell, dated 1881, proved 1899), the lease was bought by Lord Ormathwaite in 1920. Lord Ormathwaite then spent £1,875 re-decorating the house.
