Notable residents

On the death in 1779 of William Stanhope, 2nd Earl of Harrington, the lease was bought by Thomas Pitt, 1st Baron Camelford who purchased the fee simple in 1784 from the Crown, an act of Parliament having been passed for that purpose. The house was repaired and redecorated by John Soane in 1781. In 1790 it was sold by him to the Duke of Clarence (who later became William IV). Matthew Banckes rebuilt it for Laurence Hyde, 1st Earl of Rochester in 1791–92. James Hamilton, Viscount Hamilton was born there in 1786.

Prince Rupert Loewenstein, the longtime financial manager of the rock band The Rolling Stones, lived there until his death in 2014, having purchased it for about £2 million in 1987.[2]
