The home of the Lytton family since 1490, Knebworth was originally a red-brick manor house, but by 1845 had been transformed into the present Tudor Gothic structure. Its most famous resident was Edward Bulwer-Lytton, the Victorian author, dramatist and statesman.
The house is open to the public together with its surrounding gardens, grounds, adventure playground, mini railway and dinosaur park. Since 1974 the grounds have become a major venue for open air rock and pop concerts.
