In the Red Drawing Room are portraits of the Duke and Duchess of Kent (Her Majesty's parents), and of the Prince and Princess of Wales. Here, too, the fur- niture, fittings, hangings, and carpe...ts, are all of rare quality.

Her Majesty's own apartments are at the south-east corner, and imme- diately opposite to them, in the corner of the courtyard, and over the Queen's Entrance Porch, is the Oak Room, now chiefly used as a private dining-room.
