Hace 5 días · Francis, the fifth Duke, a close friend of Charles James Fox and the Prince of Wales, succeeded his grandfather in 1771, and died in 1802. In Covent Garden the chief events of his time were the renovation of St. Paul's Church in 1788–9, its rebuilding, after a fire, in 1797–8, the rebuilding of Drury Lane Theatre in 1791–4 and the northward extension of Bow Street to Long Acre.
The estate has since been broken up; much of it was bought by Lord Francis Egerton and the Hon. John Locke-King. The house of the Duke of York, rebuilt after the fire of 1793, has been mostly pulled down, but part is incorporated in the Oatlands Park Hotel.
