Rosslyn House

Summary

Rosslyn House was a historic residence in what is now the Belsize Park area of London. Dating back to the sixteenth century and then known as Grove House, it was acquired in 1794 by the Scottish judge Alexander Wedderburn, 1st Earl of Rosslyn, the Lord Chancellor. Around this time the house occupied an estate of around twenty one acres. After his death, the property was named after the Earl by subsequent occupant Robert Milligan. He was known for his role in the construction of the West India Docks.
