Clarence House

A Georgian-style residence built in 1787 for the future William IV, overlooking English Harbour.

Clarence House was built in 1787 for the Duke of Clarence, the future King William IV, who was then serving in the Caribbean. It later became the governor's country residence. This Georgian-style stone house sits on the eastern hillside of English Harbour, with a direct view of Nelson's Dockyard. It was restored in recent years, and interior access varies, but the exterior can be admired from the roadside and from the dockyard across the water.
