Whitehall Gardens, Whitehall, City of Westminster, Greater London Authority, late 1930s. A view of the remains of Whitehall Gardens seen during demolition with a cupola on the War Office building visible in the background. The Georgian town houses in Whitehall Gardens were demolished in 1938 to make way for the Board of Trade and Air Ministry Building, later the Ministry of Defence. However, due to the Second World War the construction of the new building was only started after the war. The remains shown in this photograph may be that of Malmesbury House.
