A ground plan of Carlton House, with each room labelled, and a scale. This is one of a number of plans prepared by Henry Holland, who was employed by George, Prince of Wales to remodel the building from 1783 onwards. This plan indicated suggestions for a new suite of rooms, in pink at top left. This phase of the project may be connected with the preparation of rooms for Princess Caroline of Brunswick, who George married in 1795. Mounted with a wash border.
