Abstract

The appearance in 1982 of volume iv part II, marks the completion of that epic task, The History of the King’s Works, which would surely never have been achieved but for the devoted editorship and authorship of Howard Colvin over a period of twenty-five years. In this last volume the section dealing with Hampton Court opens by stating that ‘although more survives of Hampton Court than any other Tudor palace, the architectural history of that great complex of buildings . . . presents many problems that neither archaeological investigation nor documentary research can fully resolve’.
