The Architecture of Western Gardens: A Design History from the Renaissance to the Present Day
Sutton Place is an outstanding early-Tudor house built during the 1520s by Sir Richard Weston, an important courtier in the reign of Henry VIII. As well as being an early example of an unfortified manor-house with Renaissance influence, Sutton Place has remained remarkably unaltered since it was originally built.
