The Howard de Walden Estate is a property estate in Marylebone, London, owned by the Howard de Walden family. As of 2020 the estate was reported to be worth £4.7 billion. The Estate's development dates from 1715 when speculative planning of Cavendish Square in London, and the streets around it began. The Marylebone manor and estate was purchased by the Duke of Newcastle in 1711. Dying soon after it passed to his daughter Henrietta Cavendish Holles who married Edward Harley, heir of the Earl of Oxford, in 1713. Both Edward’s father and uncle were active and influential in English politics during Queen Anne’s reign and it seems that his uncle Edward was behind the appointment of a steward and surveyor to begin marking out building plots and negotiating leases on Henrietta’s Marylebone estate. In 1719 the surveyor John Prince published a plan of the estate showing named roads and building sites which is still recognisable today. Thus began a programme of building fashionable properties extending north from Tyburn Road, renamed Oxford Street, as far as Regents Park, taking in the old village of Marylebone on the west and the newly built Cleveland Street on the east.
