Horn Court 'was the centre of Henry I's original residence of c.1107-10' (Pevsner, p. 642). Altered in the 1360s, by Hugh May - who added the staircase hall - in the seventeenth century and by James Wyatt, c.1805-10. The plan on the right is for the ground floor; the plan on the left is for the principal floor.
