Hatfield House
The home of the 7th Marquess and Marchioness of Salisbury and their family.
The Estate has been in the Cecil family for 400 years.
In 1611, Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury, and the son of Lord Burghley, the chief minister of Elizabeth I built this fine Jacobean House adjoining the site of the Old Palace of Hatfield.
The deer park surrounding the house, and the older building of the Old Palace, had been owned Henry VIII who had used it as a home for his children, Edward, Elizabeth and Mary. It was while she was living in the Old Palace, in 1558, that Elizabeth learned of her accession to the throne.
The House was splendidly decorated for entertaining the Royal Court, with State Rooms rich in paintings, fine furniture and tapestries.
Superb examples of Jacobean craftsmanship, such as the Grand Staircase with its fine carving, and the rare stained glass window in the private chapel can be seen throughout the house .

The Armoury
The Armoury began as an open loggia in the Italian Renaissance style, with a door at the top of the steps at each end.
Such an arrangement proved inconvenient, as it meant that there was no interior passage on the ground floor between the two wings. The 2nd Marquess filled in the windows in 1834 and laid the marble floor.
The 3rd Marquess completed the alterations by putting up the panelling.
Most of the armour on the walls was purchased by the 2nd Marquess from the Tower of London in the middle of the 19th century.
At the west end of the Armoury there are two standing figures in armour, the faces of which are replicas of the death mask of Charles I.
The Armoury houses a fine domestic organ supplied in 1609 by John Haan, a Dutchman. The case retains its original decoration by Rowland Bucket, an extraordinarily versatile artist whose painting and gilding on ceilings, walls and furniture did much to brighten the interior of the House when it was first built. He even decorated the salads and meat dishes at Robert Cecil’s funeral. The organ is in regular use and is played to entertain visitors.

66077 with 1111 Scunthorpe Roxby Gullet - Rossington Loading Pad taking the junction to Skellow line with the remains of Hatfield Colliery in background.
This shot was taken in the swimming pool garden which also serves as an apple orchard. The yew hedge is the perimeter wall of the maze.
Soon to be Britain's last remaining deep colliery after the closures of Kellingley and Thoresby at the end of this year, sad really... She's still looking great though with those two classic colliery headstocks. Although there are no current plans to close Hatfield as yet, I'd still say grab your pics now whilst you can if you want them!
Last day of production was in fact yesterday, just got news, very sad! Guess I was lucky to accidentally catch her on her last day of production! :(

The yews of the East Garden Maze were planted in 1840. The maze can be viewed from the terrace of the East Garden and you can walk around the edge but the public are seldom allowed to explore the inside of the magnificent hedge puzzle.

The Chapel
The Chapel, consecrated in 1614, is still in regular use as a place of worship.
The stained glass window, showing Old Testament scenes, was made in 1610 by the glass-painters Richard Butler of Southwark, ‘Lewis Dolphin, a French painter’ (probably Louis Dauphin) and Martin van Bentheim of Emden, Holland.
