The Palace, a private residence of the 12th Duke of Marlborough, is the only non-royal palace in England and opened its doors to the public in 1950, in order to raise funds to conserve and maintain the palace and its estate - and it’s always busy for the staff who welcome nearly a million visitors a year.
