Manor House Vauxhall, London (1875): A Glimpse into the Past of a Royal Residence This evocative image of Manor House Vauxhall, taken in 1875, transports us back in time to an era when this historic manor was a royal palace. The manor house of Kennington, located in the vibrant district of Vauxhall in London, holds a rich and intriguing history. Edward, the Black Prince, one of the most celebrated English monarchs, took up residence in this manor during the 14th century. He frequently stayed there between 1338 and 1343, using it as a base to govern and date important letters. Edward III, the father of the Black Prince, also spent time at the manor house. The manor remained a royal palace until the time of Henry VIII. Henry VIII, in 1531, issued orders for its demolition, marking the end of its illustrious history as a royal residence. The manor house, which once stood proudly in Vauxhall, now exists only in the annals of history. This photograph offers a tantalizing glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the grandeur and splendor that once filled the halls of Manor House Vauxhall. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, reminding us of the rich history that lies hidden within the streets of London.
