The Foot Guards Battalions on public duties in London are located in barracks conveniently close to Buckingham Palace for them to be able to reach the Palace very quickly in an emergency. In central London, three companies are based at Wellington Barracks, Westminster, about 300 yards from Buckingham Palace between Birdcage Walk and Petty France. Wellington Barracks is also home to all of the Foot Guards bands and all of the Regimental Headquarters. ==History== Wellington Barracks were designed by Sir Francis Smith and Philip Hardwick and opened in 1833.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Three Parks – Daylight Route )〕 The Guards Chapel was rebuilt in the 1960s after the original chapel was destroyed by a bomb in World War II. On 31 August 2007, Diana, Princess of Wales' two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, organised a memorial service in her honour on the 10th anniversary of her death in the Guards Chapel. The Grenadier Guards, Coldstream Guards and Scots Guards currently have a company based at the barracks.
