Description

Carlton House Terrace er en gade i St James's distrikt i City of Westminster i London. Dens væsentligste arkitektoniske træk er et par terrasser af huse med hvidt stukfacade på den sydlige side af gaden, som vender ud mod St. James's Park. Disse terrasser blev bygget på krongods mellem 1827 og 1832 efter overordnede design af John Nash, men med detaljeret input fra andre arkitekter, herunder Decimus Burton, som eksklusivt designede nr. 3 og nr. 4. Denne bygning var engang den oprindelige placering for kontorer tilhørende Information Research Department, en hemmelig afdeling i det britiske Udenrigsministerium, der var dedikeret til at skabe pro-kolonial og anti-kommunistisk propaganda under den kolde krig.
Det område, hvor Carlton House Terrace blev bygget, havde engang været en del af grunden til St James's Palace, kendt som "den kongelige have" og "ørkenen". Sidstnævnte var på et tidspunkt i besiddelse af Prins Rupert af Rhinen og blev senere kaldt Øvre Spring Garden.
