Pantheon, Oxford Street, London, early 19th : J Hinchcliff


Pantheon, Oxford Street, London, early 19th century. The Pantheon was a place of entertainment designed by James Wyatt that opened in 1772. It was rebuilt after burning down in 1792, but ended its days as an entertainment venue in 1814. In 1833-1834 Sidney Smirke converted the building into a bazaar. It was used by W and A Gilbey, wine merchants, as offices and a showroom from 1867 until 1937, when it was demolished to make way for the Oxford Street branch of Marks and Spencer.
