Lindsey House

Lindsey House is a Grade II* listed villa[1] in Cheyne Walk, Chelsea, London.

[1] The great staircase of house by Zinzendorf's initiative was full of paintings, with John Valentine Haidt's painting Edward VI Granting Permission to John a Lasco to Set Up a Congregation for European Protestants in London in 1550 at the centre.

[8] The house was separated from the river by the construction of the Chelsea Embankment, completed in 1874, as a part of Joseph Bazalgette's grand scheme to create a modern sewage system.

The garden is said by Lennox-Boyd be "modest in its elements, quietly restful in its effect" and "to respect the simple formality of the house".

It inspired the architecture by Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff for "Klingnersches Haus" at the Old Market Square of Potsdam near Berlin in Germany.
