Burlington Estate
__NOTOC__
The Burlington Estate is an area in Mayfair to the north of Piccadilly in the West End of London, England.〔(Cork Street and Savile Row Area Burlington Estate Lease Tables ), ''Survey of London'', volumes 31 and 32: St James Westminster, Part 2, pp. 546–65, 1963. ''(British History Online )'', English Heritage.〕 It was developed in the 18th century. The estate was owned by the Anglo-Irish Boyle dynasty, Earls of Burlington, in particular Richard, 3rd Earl of Burlington and 4th Earl of Cork (1694-1753).
Burlington House, which is situated on Picadilly, was the main house on the estate. The House is now the home to the Royal Academy, the Geological Society of London, the Linnean Society of London, the Royal Astronomical Society, the Society of Antiquaries of London and the Royal Society of Chemistry.
Streets developed in the estate include Cork Street, now a centre for art galleries, and Savile Row, renowned for traditional (especially bespoke) gentleman's tailoring. The area has been known for its tailors since being developed. Beau Brummell (1778–1840), who introduced the flamboyant form of gentleman's fashion in Regency London that became known as dandyism, patronised tailors in the area.
