Best Answer

It was built in Farnham because Farnham was situated on the main road halfway between London and Winchester so it was a good place to have a rest stop en-route. It was also used as the Bishop of Winchester's Palace where he could stay and be near to both London and Winchester, this also meant that it was used by various monarchs whilst on progress.
