Hardwick Hall
A very beautiful , and the most significant, Elizabethan country house, from the era Tudor.
It was built by Roberth Smython in 1590 to 1597 for Elizabeth Bess, England's second most wealthy woman during that time. She was a very strong-minded business woman.
Hardwick Hall is a symbol of wealth. Glass was very expensive in this time, and Hardwick Hall is known to have "more glass than wall". In Elizabeth's room there are four-panes windows, but in the servants' rooms there are only two-panes windows. Which significes that Elizabeth was the most wealthy in that house.
