Regent's Park has been in the ownership of the Crown since the 16th Century and was largely designed for the Prince Regent by John Nash to create a garden city concept of villas, terraces and crescents. Building began in 1812, and by 1826 almost all the terraces were completed or at least put in hand. Chester Terrace is the longest unbroken terrace of all (nearly 300 metres), with 99 bays of resplendent crème stucco, elaborately divided up. At the ends, projecting wings are connected to the main façade by triumphal arches on which the name of the terrace is superscribed. A private road serves the front doors of all the houses, and a private garden for the residents' use, running the whole length of the Terrace, separates it from the Outer Circle.
