Marble Hill was built in the 1720s for Henrietta Howard, a key figure in the 18th century Georgian court. Henrietta was a patron of architecture and the arts. After a long career at court, she used Marble Hill as her restful retreat. Henrietta was born in 1689 and grew up at Blickling Hall in Norfolk. When she was nine her father, , was killed in a dual. Painting of Henrietta Howard Sir Henry Hobart by Charles Jervas in c.1724. Three years later her mother died and it is thought that she moved to Audley End or Gunnersbury, homes of Henry Howard, 5th Earl of Suffolk who was connected to Henrietta’s family through marriage. When she was seventeen, in 1706, Henrietta married Charles Howard, one of the Earl of Suffolk’s younger sons. He was fourteen years her senior, though this type of age gap was not unusual at the time. Their only son, Henry, was born the following year.

The project is ambitious for a number of reasons – but in terms of this Business Plan, most importantly because it will provide a complete step change in the level of commercial activity onsite. Turnover will increase onsite fourfold to around £1m p.a. as a direct result of the project , and expenditure will increase by around a third. This Business Plan provides a detailed assessment of the forecast operational performance of Marble Hill House and Park under the project.

  • The Slavery Connections of Marble Hill House
    1 The slavery connections of Marble Hill House Dr Laurence Brown School of Arts, Histories and Cultures University of the Manchester June 2010 2 This report was commissioned in November 2008 as part of a project to explore the slavery connections of four historic properties in the stewardship of English Heritage. Archival research was carried out on Bolsover Castle, Brodsworth Hall, Marble Hill House, and Northington Grange to examine the impact of slavery-generated wealth on the development of these properties. The research follows the 2007 survey by Miranda Kaufmann on the family history of 33 English Heritage properties and their slavery connections. Using databases on the trans-Atlantic slave trade and the compensation paid to British slave-owners in the 1830s, Kaufmann’s study focused on those who owned property in slave colonies, held government office in such colonies, invested in slaving or traded in slave produced goods, were engaged in abolitionist debates or legal decisions on slavery, or who owned black servants. The aims of this report are to provide more detailed information on the economic, social, and cultural connections that linked Marble Hill House to Atlantic slavery. The report examines the relative importance of slave-generated wealth in the fortunes of Marble Hill’s occupants and how these changed over time. It then details the extent to which wealth from slavery shaped the physical development of the estate and its aesthetic design. 3 Contents 1) Executive summary 2) Henrietta Howard 3) Slavery in the family: Scipio
