The Earl of Dorset and his associates Sir Henry Compton and Sir John Sackville leases the Salisbury Court property (including the area already leased to Richard Gunnell and William Blagrave) to John Herne for sixty-one years at the nominal fee of one peppercorn a year. The lease stipulates that if the Earl, Compton, Sackville or their assigns pay Herne £950 plus interest on 16 July 1734, they may repossess the land and lease. The lease contains a detailed description of the Salisbury Court property, which consisted of a barn, courtyard and stable between Dorset House and Water Lane.
