One of the finest working stables in existence, the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace provides a unique opportunity for visitors to see the work of the Royal Household department that provides road transport for The Queen and members of the Royal Family by both horse-drawn carriage and motor car. The Royal Mews was built by Nash in the 1820’s as the Mews for Buckingham Palace. The entrance off Buckingham Palace Road is through a Doric archway surmounted by a clock tower, taking you into the quadrangle. For much of the year visitors to the Royal Mews can also see the 30 or so carriage-horses which play an important role in The Queen’s official and ceremonial duties.
