Little Argyll Street, W1B

Little Argyll Street dates from 1736.

The Argyll Rooms was a prominent entertainment venue. Originally opened in 1806, the building underwent a significant transformation in 1818 to align with the grand design of Regent Street. Misfortune struck in 1830 when a devastating fire consumed the structure, reducing it to ashes. Undeterred, the owners rebuilt the Argyll Rooms, but over time, the venue gradually transitioned into a space primarily occupied by shops.

Despite its relatively short lifespan, the Argyll Rooms played a crucial role in the musical landscape of London, serving as the home of the Philharmonic Society of London from its founding in 1813 until the fateful fire. During this period, the rooms bore witness to the English debuts of several musical luminaries, including the violinist Louis Spohr, the pianist Ignaz Moscheles, the composer and pianist Franz Liszt, and the composer Felix Mendelssohn.

The story of the Argyll Rooms traces back to the magnificent mansion of John Campbell, the 2nd Duke of Argyll, which once stoodon the east side of King Street. In 1736, the central portion of the mansion was razed to make way for the construction of Little Argyll Street. The Argyll Rooms opened there in 1806.
