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 King James Drawing Room
This has always been the principal reception room in the House.
It takes its name from the life-size statue of James I, presented by the King himself, which stands above the mantelpiece.
The marble chimneypiece was carved by the King’s Master Sculptor, Maximilian Colt.
Most of the furniture is of the late 18th century.
Portrait of Queen Elizabeth I (Detail)
The famous Ermine portrait of Queen Elizabeth I is displayed in the centre of the north wall of the room, this is one of the four paintings of the monarch which were owned by Robert Cecil at the beginning of the 17th century. It is attributed to Nicholas Hilliard (1547-1619), the Queen’s court artist. The date of the portrait (1585) is inscribed on the hilt of the Sword of State lying by her left hand.
Elizabeth holds a sprig of olive in one hand (representing Peace) and has a small white animal on the sleeve of her left hand. The animal is an ermine, a symbol of purity and virginity: it wears a collar in the form of a golden crown around its neck, decorated with precious stones.
The portrait is possibly connected with a visit made by the Queen in 1585 to William Cecil, Lord Burghley, at Theobalds. The royal features are impassive and painted in a flat light that makes the Queen look aloof and imperious. The detail on the jewellery and lace is particularly magnificent, whilst the pendant hanging from her neck is made of three huge rubies that once belonged to the Dukes of Burgundy and which were known as the Three Brothers. The Queen’s monument in Westminster Abbey shows her wearing this jewel.

28 of these single-storey houses were built in the mid-60s by the Cockaigne Housing Group. They were an evolution of ideas negotiated by the clients, architects (Phippen, Parkes and Randall) together with sociologist, Barbara Adams. Price on completion - from £2875(1-bed) to £5940(4-bed). They look very narrow but from looking at the floor plans, I can see they go back a long way. This is how they looked when they were first built.
