Queen Charlotte (Charlotte of Mecklenburg‑Strelitz), wife of King George III of Great Britain, died in November 1818 at Kew (then called the Dutch House, now Kew Palace), aged 74. Most modern references give her date of death as 17 November 1818, noting that she died at the Dutch House (Kew) and was later buried in St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.
