Hatfield House Travel Review

Built in 1611, Hatfield House is considered one of the best examples of Jacobean architecture in England. The children of King Henry VIII, including Queen Mary I, Queen Elizabeth I, and King Edward VI, all grew up here. During the reign of her sister, Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth I was briefly imprisoned here. It was also at Hatfield House, under a tree in the garden, that Queen Elizabeth I received the news that Queen Mary I had died and that she would be crowned queen.
