Government House, Official residence in Stanley, Falkland Islands.

Government House stands on Ross Road, featuring a central stone section with multiple architectural additions that form its current structure.

Built in 1845 under Governor Moody's design, Government House became the first permanent residence for Falkland Islands governors in 1859.

The residence maintains its role as the administrative center and hosts governmental ceremonies that connect officials with the local community.

While the interior remains closed to public visits, the exterior architecture and gardens can be viewed from Ross Road.

The conservatory contains one of the southernmost growing Black Hamburg grapevines in the world.
