Eminent architect Sir John Soane, whose legacy includes the Bank of England and Dulwich Picture Gallery, also in London, was the Royal Hospital’s Clerk of Works for 30 years. He designed and built the Grade II listed stable yard between 1814 and 1817, repurposing many materials from Wren’s original structure. The stable yard provided stalls for 25 working horses, housing for nine carriages and two flats for stable boys and coachmen. Overseen by architect, Laura Morgante, of Peregrine Bryant, the restoration has conserved the historic fabric from both Wren and Soane’s buildings and reinstated architectural features – like the beautiful chimneys damaged during the Second World War – using innovative conservation techniques. This visit will include a talk on the project and a tour, led by the architect.
