Benjamin Franklin House.

Benjamin Franklin's House was built circa 1730 and lies between Trafalgar Square and the Victoria Embankment. Franklin lived here between 1757 and 1775. In 1757, the Pennsylvania Assembly sent Franklin to London in an attempt to undermine the political influence of the Penn family.
