Partial quote from Hatfield House's official web site:
"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."
"This area of the House was destroyed by the fire in 1835 that also took the life of the Ist Marchioness of Salisbury. At the time of the fire, engines had to travel from as far away as London, so it was some time before they reached Hatfield. However, the Chapel was miraculously saved when the intense heat melted the leaden water tanks in the attics. Simultaneously, the wind changed direction and torrential rain began to fall, so the flames were extinguished before any more damage could be done. The fire was driven back and only the West Wing was destroyed."
"Following its miraculous survival, the Chapel was remodelled between 1869 and 1877 by the 3rd Marquess, although the gallery retains its original portraits by Rowland Bucket of apostles and evangelists in the roundels under each arch."

Hatfield House, in Hertfordshire, England, was built in 1611 by Robert Cecil, Earl of Salisbury and chief minister to king James I, and the Cecil family have lived there ever since.
The old palace of Hatfield stands nearby, built in 1497 by the Bishop of Ely, was confiscated by king Henry VIII, and became a favourite residence of Queen Elizabeth I. After Elizabeth's death, king James gave the palace to Robert Cecil, who then built the much larger building, part of which is seen here.

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

Having seen where the Grids were working, Mark and I opted for another session at Hatfield and Stainforth. The advantage of this location was several 'Enterprise' trips running off of Doncaster including 6D51 to Hull Hedon Rd, 6D65/6D45 to Immingham and this one which is the 6D95 to Goole. 56112 'Stainless Pioneer' is in charge with 8 steel wagons in tow. Shame about the weather but it was March!!
