Why is Buck House not built in Buckingham or, in fact, Buckinghamshire?

Well, they were going to, but, Cowboy Builders, in'nit? 🤷‍♂️

It was originally the home of the Duke of Buckingham in part of its present form then aquired by Charles the 111 as a retreat for Queen Charlotte, first monarch to live there permanently was Queen Victoria and Prince Albert did extensive extensions (dab hand with the DIY)

It was called Buckingham House before becoming a Royal Palace.

Not Shipley! It is beautiful. Then again I don't have to live there.
It is a monument to a different and maybe gentler time. Maybe Josiah Salt thought he was doing a great job
I spent 5 years there, on balance some of my happiest years.
I discovered barm cakes, never understood mushies and had to bring my own coffee machine.

What the market?!!
