Yalding House

Yalding House is a building at 152–156 Great Portland Street, London, United Kingdom owned by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) where BBC Radio 1 has been based since 1996.

Yalding House is also home to BBC Radio 1Xtra, the digital sister station of BBC Radio 1 and previously home to BBC Switch, the umbrella brand for the BBC's youth output across radio, television and online until its closure in 2010. It is also the production base for the stations' news output: 1Xtra News and Radio 1's Newsbeat.

Radio 1 was previously based at Egton House, which was demolished in 2003 to make way for the new BBC Broadcasting House extensions. By the end of 2012 Radio 1 will move from BBC Yalding House to new studios on the 8th floor of New BBC Broadcasting House, just a few metres away from the "Peel Wing", which stands in place of its former home. "Egton Wing" occupies the land on which Egton House previously stood, and was renamed the "Peel Wing" in 2012 in honour of the long-serving BBC Radio 1 presenter, John Peel, who broadcast on the station from its launch in 1967 up until his death in 2004.

Radio 3 previously occupied Yalding House, with the BBC Central Music Library located on the ground floor and basement. The building's former role as a car showroom made it ideal for the heavy shelving required to store the collection.
