even though Cardinal Wolsey built Hampton court no one actuly lived in it after 18th century
Henry took Hampton Court Palace from Cardinal Wolsey in 1528, and resided at the palace, on and off until August of 1546. When Henry died, in 1547, he owned more than 60 homes (palaces, manors, and castles.) Throughout his reign, Henry used many of his homes but Hampton Court Palace was his favorite, and where he resided, most of the time, until shortly before his death. He died at Whitehall Palace.

Hampton Court Palace, a historic royal palace in England, is estimated to have used around 1.5 million bricks during its construction in the late 16th century.

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.

If you're staying in London and you'd like to get out of the city for the day, I'd suggest Hampton Court Palace, Chiswick Gardens or Kew Gardens.
