The pediment on the S front, designed by Henry Flitcroft, 1742, with the arms of Philip Yorke, baron Hardwicke, Lord Chancellor of England, who became 1st earl of Hardwicke in 1754. The statue above the pediment depicts charity (a somewhat odd subject for this location, perhaps), and was carved by J. H. Foley, who was also responsible for the statue of the Prince Consort in the Albert Memorial. The chimney stacks are also Victorian.
