Dover House photo 1
Dover House is a stunning Grade I-listed neoclassical mansion located in Whitehall, London, serving as the headquarters for the Scotland Office. Originally designed in the 1750s, it has a rich history, having been home to notable figures such as the Duke of Montagu and the Melbourne family. The building features a unique rotunda entrance hall and has witnessed significant historical events, including its use by the Colonial Office and a bombing incident in 1947. Today, it not only houses the Scotland Office but also the Office of the Advocate General for Scotland and the Independent Commission for Aid Impact, making it a key site for understanding Scotland's role in the UK government.
