It had begun in 1853, and James McHenry was seen as having 'saved' the project by arranging finance in Europe, so there could be some crossover appeal between the American, British, and European markets. It was McHenry who handed over the project to engineer Thomas Kennard, who saw it completed in 1864. Oak Hill Lodge is just west of Holland Park (and is now a street called Oakwood Court, W14) and was built in 1855 and bought by James McHenry in 1862. It was later demolished by new buyers in 1900, and replaced by mansion blocks.Also included in the lot are two visitors' books from Oak Lodge, containing some 85 signatures reflecting the international nature of the guests at Oak Lodge, with illustrious visitors from Spain, Canada and the United States; one commemorating the visit of Napoleon III and the Empress Eugenie on 10 July 1871, with illuminated title page comprising a coat-of-arms, signed by both, portrait cabinet photographs of Napoleon III, the Empress Eugenie and their son, the Prince Imperial, affixed (one signed and inscribed 'A Mme MacHenry Eugenie'), also with the signatures of Maria Cristina de Borbon and Antonio d'Orleans under an illuminated coat-of-arms, later signatures include John D.
