Regent's Park has a history stretching back through seven centuries, well before the designer and architectural genius John Nash and his patron the Prince Regent laid it out at the beginning of the 19th century as the first of the improvements they had planned for London. Rabbitts recounts the story of the park from its origins as a tiny part of the Middlesex Forest to the dissolution of the Monasteries, when it became Henry VIII's hunting park and Marylebone Park, to its subsequent development in the 19th century as London's new West End.
