==History==
Prior to its construction, the area was the site of the St. James's Hospital, which specialized in treating women who suffered from leprosy. Patients worked on the marshy land around the hospital as part of their treatment, raising hogs for the hospital to sell. In 1532, the land was acquired by King Henry VIII to use as as a hunting ground, while Elizabeth I would use the park to host lavish parties.Assassin's Creed: Syndicate – Database: St. James's Park
