In 1917 the house at No. 4 Norfolk Street, which had been built in 1913-1916 and sold to Mr Penryn Vaughan-Morgan, became a military hospital.

It was named The Garland Home and was a section of Queen Alexandra's Military Hospital in Millbank. It had 36 beds for sick and wounded officers.

The Home closed in 1919.

Present status (August 2010)

After the war the house was occupied by the banker Sir Eric Hambro, K.B.E.

Between 2003 and 2005 the property was converted from office to residential use. It is now Warburton House, a luxury apartment block.

In 1939 Norfolk Street was renamed Dunraven Street by the LCC, after the 4th Earl of Dunraven and Mount-Earl (1841-1926) who had been a member of the LCC and a resident of the street.
