A Marylebone office building that served as a secret Second World War training centre for spies preparing to be dropped into Nazi occupied France has been sold for around £3 million.
The Grade II listed Georgian property at 1 Dorset Square was known as “Spy Corner” during the conflict and became a symbol of Anglo-French co-operation and friendship. For the past 36 years it has been used as a French language centre run by the Alliance Francaise de Londres.
