Sutton Hall, Sutton Lane Ends

The upper storey of the right gable is jettied, the jetty being supported on brackets carved with wooden figures, one a knight in chain mail.

[1] Not far from the hall is a Bronze Age barrow or cairn, probably a cremation site, now much reduced in size.

[4][5] Once the property of the Sir Humphrey Davenport, Chief Baron of the Exchequer in 1631, the Manor of Sutton later passed by marriage to Sir Rowland Belasyse, an ancestor of the Earls of Fauconberg.

[6] The countess had been born Elizabeth Belasyse, daughter of Henry Belasyse, 2nd Earl Fauconberg and in 1794 had married Richard Bingham, who became the 2nd Earl of Lucan in 1799.

[7] In 2008 the building was substantially refurbished as a restaurant by Brunning and Price, the then owners.
