Stamford: Burghley House Stamford: Burghley House No Data

Description


The fine stately home was built for the Baron Burghley who was Lord High Treasurer to Queen Elizabeth I. Its a fine example of a Tudor palace built by someone with a lot of money and favour in high places. Today a small number of the rooms are open to the public during the summer months to look around - with vast amounts of paintings and treasures on display
