The Royal Cockpit in Dartmouth Street survived until 1816,

a cock-fight, shows its interior as circular, and as embellished
with the royal coat of arms. Another interesting picture of the

( 1808). It is needless to add that this building had nothing what-
ever to do with the theatre royal of the days of King Charles.
