The main building shown in this view is situated between Argyll Place (Since 1913, Great Marlborough Street) which is to the right of the building, and the rounded end at Little Argyll Street on its left. The building housed a number of small shops, with accommodation above, Nos. 224 to 244 Regent Street.

Just beyond the rounded end of the building on the opposite side of Little Argyll Street is the  dome of the Argyll Rooms, Nos. 246-252 Regent Street, home of the Royal Harmonic Institution. Founded in 1818 the Institution moved into their new premises in 1820. The building designed by John Nash had several concert halls, dining and assembly rooms and a shop selling sheet music. It always struggled financially and, in 1830, it was burned down. The insurance money was insufficient for the Institution to rebuild it, so it was replaced with six houses with ground level shops.

The extreme left of the view shows where Regent Street ends and merges with Langham Place. The Church is All Souls, Langham Place, was designed by John Nash and consecrated in 1823.

Out of sight on the opposite side of Regent Street to these buildings is Saint George's Chapel which is also featured in this series.
