    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The main building, or principal block, is rectangular in shape and flanked by two courtyards–the east and west courts, respectively. Together, all three blocks make up the “Great Court”. The structure is built in the English Baroque style. Guests may enter the building through the north facade found at the center of the principal block, which is fronted by both Corinthian and Doric columns. There are three primary floors. Approximately 1,000 windows line the walls of the building, which illuminate its 187 rooms. The structure was primarily built with Cotswold, Portland, and Plymouth stone, however timber and slate have also been used in roof restoration projects. The stone is primarily golden in color.]]></dcterms:description>
