House of St Barnabas, Grade I listed building in Westminster, United Kingdom.
The House of St Barnabas is a Georgian townhouse on Greek Street featuring symmetrical front facades and period moldings that reflect its 18th-century design. The corner property displays the architectural refinement typical of the era, with attention to detail in its windows, door surrounds, and interior room proportions.
Architect Joseph Pearce designed this corner house between 1744 and 1746 as a residence for wealthy Soho inhabitants. The building earned Grade I listing status in 1958, marking its recognition as exceptionally important to Westminster's architectural heritage.
Today the building serves as a venue where visitors can attend exhibitions and events held within its historic walls. This contemporary use shows how the place remains central to the neighborhood's cultural life.
The building sits in the heart of Soho, within easy walking distance of central London. Visitors should plan time to explore the rooms at a relaxed pace, as the narrow staircases and corridors make it best suited to leisurely browsing.
The building has served multiple purposes over time, transforming from a private residence into a center for community support and social initiatives. This evolution shows how historic structures can adapt to meet the changing needs of their neighborhoods.
