Cranborne Manor

The main seat of the earls and marquesses of Salisbury is Hatfield House in Hertfordshire, and Cranborne Manor is often the home of the heir to the title, who uses the courtesy title Viscount Cranborne.

The original Manor house was actually built for King John in the 12th century and was used as a royal hunting lodge.

The vaulted undercroft dates from the same period and has screens with Doric pilasters, and a gallery with arcaded panelling above.

[5] The farm is mostly arable but there is some pastureland, mostly riverside meadows, where the beef suckler herd graze.

It contains a water mobile named 'La Source' created by Angela Conner and various other works of art.
