Buckingham House in St James Park belonging to the Most Noble & Potent Prince John Sheffield Baron of Botterwick, Earl of Mulgrave . . .
Buckingham House in St. James's Park, built by the Duke of Buckingham (so created by Queen Anne, as the extensive caption finally tells) between 1702 and 1705. He died in 1721. The house was bought by George II in 1762 and transferred to his queen in 1775 in exchange for Somerset House, which was made over to the new Royal Academy of Arts.
