Hatfield House

Hatfield House is a nation house set in an extensive stop, the Great Park, on the eastern side of the town of Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England. The present Jacobean house, a main case of the wonder house, was worked in 1611 by Robert Cecil, First Earl of Salisbury and Chief Minister to King James I and has been the home of the Cecil family from that point onward. It is a prime case of Jacobean design. The domain incorporates broad grounds and surviving parts of a prior castle. The house, presently the home of Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, 7^th Marquess of Salisbury, is available to general society.

A prior expanding on the site was the Royal Palace of Hatfield. Just piece of this still exists, a short separation from the present house. That royal residence was the youth home and most loved living arrangement of Queen Elizabeth I Worked in 1497 by the Bishop of Ely, King Henry VII's pastor John Cardinal Morton, it involved four wings in a square encompassing a focal yard. The royal residence was seized by Henry VIII with other church properties. The adjacent ward church of St Etheldreda's, in Old Hatfield once served the Bishops Palace and in addition the town.
