Henry VIII's palaces were Whitehall Palace, Windsor Castle and (after he sacked Cardinal Wolsey) Hampton Court. He was also having another palace built in the Surrey countryside called Nonsuch Palace, so named because there was to be 'none such like it in all of England'. However, the King died whilst it was still under construction. It was finally completed seven years after his death and used by all monarchs up until Charles II, who gave it to his mistress the Duchess of Cleveland. She was a gambling addict, who had it dismantled in the late 17th Century to sell the materials to pay off her debts.
