About this deal

London Diplomatic list, Consulates in the UK outside London and the Honorary Consuls Lists updated.

August update of the London Diplomatic list, Consulates in the UK outside London and the Honorary Consuls lists We aim to position the UK as a responsible, reliable and effective international actor and partner, investing in the global relationships we need for the long term. The house stands behind fifteen-foot high iron gates on land that was once part of a “great forest, with wooded glades and lairs of wild beasts, deer both red and fallow, wild bulls and boars”. Half a century before the Norman Conquest the land belonged to the Abbey of Barking. Over the years, King Henry Vlll hunted there, Queen Elizabeth I used it for entertaining dignitaries and King James I offered it as collateral to raise money to go to war. King Charles II had the whole area “disparked” and toward the end of the 17th century Lord Arlington was given one of the first private leases.

Ambassadors’ families consider it a privilege and also a great responsibility to act as temporary custodians of this fine house. Virtual Tour of Winfield House

Every effort was made to restore the house to the Annenbergs’ widely respected taste in furnishings and to ensure that the house will be suitable for future Ambassadors and their families. Winfield House Today As Ambassadors changed, so did the style of entertaining and the arrangement of furniture. In 1983 Ambassador and Mrs. Charles H. Price ll restored the original decorations that Haines, Graber and Poplak had done for the Annenbergs. They also returned to the reception areas the most impressive pieces of furniture. The preconception that most homeless people are addicts is not true, said Williams: “Sixty per cent of our chaps are homeless because of relationship breakdowns.” Three documents updated: London Diplomatic List, Honorary consulates in the UK, and Consular offices outside London.November update of the Foreign Heads of Mission Precedence list, London Diplomatic list, Consulates in the UK outside London and the Honorary Consuls lists.

Chargé d’Affaires Reeker at the Remembrance Day Memorial Commemoration at Brookwood American Cemetery Potential residents will be referred by Manchester city council or local homeless charities and then interviewed by Embassy. “The interview is really to ascertain whether you’re serious about change,” said Williams. “Believe it or not, about half the people we interview say, ‘I don’t want a job, I don’t ever want to work, I want to live in a council flat. That’s my ambition.’ And we go, ‘That’s great. But we are not that thing.’” June update of the London Diplomatic List, Honorary Consulates within the UK and Consular Offices outside London. Ambassador and Mrs. Walter H. Annenberg made a tremendous contribution to the house during their tenure from 1969 to 1974. They not only refurbished the house from top to bottom, modernizing the whole infrastructure and adding a new roof, but also furnished it with the most carefully chosen and valuable pieces of furniture, beautiful paintings and precious objets d’art. A chandelier from an Indian palace was bought for the reception hall. Bedrooms and reception rooms were redecorated by William Haines, Ted Graber and Dudley Poplak. The tennis court was resurfaced and the indoor swimming pool repainted. In the gardens old and ailing trees were replaced with fully-grown conifers brought from Scotland. Then a box garden and new trelliswork were added.

Winfield House was also used as an Air Crew Reception Center, along with another in Abbey Lodge, for recruits being screened as prospective RAF pilots. Near misses from German bombs damaged the roof and moisture ruined the parquet floors and in 1944 a flying bomb exploded forty yards from the house, killing one cadet and injuring twenty others. Six weeks later Winfield House ceased to host the RAF unit – although it was later used as an American Officers’ Club. We employ around 17,033 staff in our diplomatic and development offices worldwide, including in 281 embassies and high commissions abroad.

When Ambassador Elliot Richardson arrived in 1975 his wife said, “the house was absolutely wonderful. . . a joy to move into” and when the Armstrongs moved in a year later, Ambassador Anne Armstrong said, “I ran through the house like a kid, I’d never seen anything so beautiful. It was like fairyland and in such beautiful shape.”September update of the London Diplomatic, Honorary Consulates within the UK and Consular Offices outside London lists.
