10 Milner Street
About a Grade II listed house in Chelsea, London From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
10 Milner Street, also known as Stanley House(because Ovington Street was then Stanley Street) is a Grade II listed house in Milner Street, Chelsea, London, England.
It is a double-fronted house in an Italianate style, and was built by the Chelsea speculator John Todd in 1849, for his own occupation.[1]
It was never home to Sir Courtenay Ilbert.[2]
From 1945, Courtenay's nephew, the interior designer Michael Inchbald lived there with his uncle, and continued to do so after Ibert's death.[1]
In 1960, the Inchbald School of Design was founded in the drawing room by his wife Jacqueline Ann Duncan (then Jacqueline Inchbald).[1] The Inchbald School was founded in the old ground floor drawing room, which once housed the Ilbert Collection of clocks, watches, marine chronometers and sundials.
It has been Grade II listed since 1969.[3]
