Built on the site of the Syon Abbey; Henry VIII made sure to dessolve that by killing the the Confessor , Richard Reynolds. A lot of the Drama happened here.
Adam’s work strikes you as soon as you enter the portico coach gate into the grand Great Hall. Adam based the room on a Roman basilica, and the cubic hall is filled with Doric columns, classical busts (including Socrates and Claudius), and bronze statues of The Dying Gaul and Apollo Belvedere.
