Detail of the brass nameplate outside the Foreign & Commonwealth Office outside the government department on King Charles Street SW1, on 5th October, 2017, in London, England. The main Foreign Office building is in King Charles Street, and was built by George Gilbert Scott in partnership with Matthew Digby Wyatt and completed in 1868 as part of the new block of government offices which included the India Office and later 1875 the Colonial and Home Offices. George Gilbert Scott was responsible for the overall classical design of these offices but he had an amicable partnership with Wyatt, the India Office's Surveyor, who designed and built the interior of the India Office.
