The Wren family estate was in the area of Hampton Court.
It had been bought by Wren many years before as part of a legacy for his son Christopher Wren, Jr. For convenience Wren also leased a house on St James's Street in London.
According to a 19th century legend, he would often go to London to pay unofficial visits to St Paul's, to check on the progress of " my greatest work ".
On one of these trips to London, at the age of ninety, he caught a chill which worsened over the next few days.
On 25 February 1723 a servant who tried to awaken Wren from his nap found that he had died.
