To Piccadilly Beresford Pike added the stone faced 1st floor arcaded loggia with parapet and then rebuilt the large camber arched entrance in an Edwardian-Baroque manner in 1931. To Burlington Gardens, Ware's elevation was replaced by the present plain Portland stone faced parapeted front (with Lord Chesham's coat of arms) over a camber arched opening on low pylons, by E. Bates and W. G. Sinning. Badly damaged in 1940, the Arcade was restored in 1954.
