I love the Painted Hall at the Royal Naval College at Greenwich. I oversaw its restoration in the late 1930s whilst I was the government’s First Commissioner of Works #philipsassoon https://t.co/mT1v1f1Z6l

Every so often a few more photos of @PhilipSassoon appear. How about this wonderful image of Philip with Frances Stevenson c.1921 - she was Lloyd George's secretary. From the AJ Sylvester Collection here at the National Library of Waleshttps://www.library.wales/?id=8150&page=10
@GitaParihar@TrentCountryPar@EnfieldCouncil@BambosMP @SaveTrentPark Good morning @GitaParihar - this is part of our work to restore Sir Philip Sassoon’s original design of the lake setting (pictured) and provide enhanced natural habitats. We are planting 433 new trees, which the public will be able to enjoy as part of the newly restored grounds.

“The modern ambassador is coming more and more to be the type of man who has not got, and cannot be expected to have, a large number of pictures of his own.” Philip Sassoon, first Commissioner of Works for the Foreign Office, in 1937 https://t.co/SMyaW0TqoU via @foreignoffice

Glamorous politician and socialite Philip Sassoon was also #Hythe MP from 1912 until his death in 1939. He held amazing parties & key political meetings at his country home #PortLympne https://t.co/iIm9kjtCrr
Best of all, fantastic @LutyensTrust visit to @portlympnepark , home of @PhilipSassoon I have wanted to visit for such a long time. Glorious setting I knew my way around even though it was 1st visit. Only thing missing was Philip but that's me recreating photo of him at the door
