Best Answer

The first British Prime Minister is generally credited as being William Walpole- he was born in 1676 at Houghton Hall in Norfolk on 4th April.

His father, Robert Walpole, was a Whig politician who represented the constituency of Castle Rising, and William was the third of seventeen children, eight of whom died in infancy.

He died on 18th March 1745 at the age of 68. Houghton Hall (which was built for his father) is now a Grade 1 listed building and it's 1,000 acres of parkland are adjacent to the Queen's estate at Sandringham. The hall is open to the public.
