170 Queen's Gate was designed by Norman Shaw and completed in 1889, the house was commissioned by Frederick Anthony White, a wealthy cement manufacturer with an interest in art and architecture. The initials of the first owner and his wife are visible on the rainwater heads on the south façade and the White family crest forms part of the decoration of the front door.
Mr White was very proud of his house and issued a portfolio of photographs in the early 1890s, showing exterior and interior views. In 1925, he sold 170 to the sixth Marquess of Anglesey, who lived there until about 1938.
