Description

Original caption: CENTRAL HALL OF THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT, WESTMINSTER.

This fine octagonal Chamber forms the central-point of Sir Charles Barry's great architectural design. It is entered by the door on the left of the picture from St. Stephen i Hall, which stands on the site of the ancient Chapel of St. Stephen, burnt down in the fire of 1S34. In the centre of the picture is the corridor which leads to the inner Lobby of the House of Commons, to which only members of Parliament and certain privileged persons bearing the Speaker's permission are admitted. A corresponding corridor on the other side of the Hall leads to the House of Lords. Statues of Earl Granville, the Earl of Iddesleigh (Sir Stafford Northcote), and Earl Russell have been placed in the Mall; the two former are shown in the picture.
