  2. RMD - Kew Palace
    First used by the Royal Family in 1728, the Palace was finally purchased by George III in 1781 as an annex to the White House (located where the sundial now stands) to accommodate his expanding family, subsequently becoming a more permanent home for the Royal Family.
    1. RMD - The National Archives - Kew
      The National Archive (formerly the Public Record Office) is also based in Kew, holding 900 years of historical records, including the Domesday Book. The site was originally a World War I hospital, after which it was utilised by several government departments.
