    Wallingford House

    Home of the son of the second Marquis of Hamilton, located even closer to Whitehall Palace than Buckingham’s York House on the Strand. Housed collection of paintings by Rubens and others. After the execution of CI in 1649 the collection was seized by the Commonwealth and sold to Archduke Leopold Wilhelm in 1651.
