The house belonged to Richard Boyle, 4th Earl of Cork and also known as Lord Burlington, and he designed it in 1729 with William Kent and Inigo Jones.

Jones died in the mid-17th century - did he design the original version which was then altered by Boyle and Kent, or is his name being here just a mistake? --Camembert

Thanks for that - the Inigo Jones reference only applied to the gateway which had been designed by him more than a century earlier. I have now clarified that. Renata 10:30 Jan 5, 2003 (UTC)

Ah, I see - thanks. --Camembert
