Mayfair Hotel in Park Lane

Hi Rob,

I have a superb painting of the Mayfair Hotel in Park Lane 1950 — there is a sub-title called Cain’s Folly. I would like to know if this building is still standing (suspect not —its too nice) and why was it called Cain’s Folly.

Many Thanks
John

  1. Hello John,

    using the power of Google Street View I can see it has been demolished. What a loss as I do recall the pub.

  2. It's smart to use Google Maps. I was wondering the same but I was not sure how to check it.
