Marlborough House - Robert Adam on the South coast

Address
Marlborough House, 54 Old Steine, Brighton & Hove, BN1 1NH

Description
Join us for a 60 minute exploration of Marlborough House and its history. The building was originally constructed, c1765, for Samuel Shergold, proprietor of the Castle
Hotel in Brighton. It was sold to the fourth Duke of Marlborough shortly after and in 1786 sold again, to William Gerard Hamilton MP, who had the house extensively re-modelled by Robert Adam. It was Adam who designed the facade that can be seen today and much of his characteristic work remains inside. Later, Marlborough House served principally as local authority offices. Today the building is in private ownership and falling into distress. NOTE: It is unlikely that this event will visit the interior of the property.
