Description:A unique survival in London's East End, Sutton House was built in 1535, when Hackney was an unspoilt village, by Sir Ralph Sadleir, a rising star at the court of Henry VIII. It became home to successive merchants, Huguenot silk weavers, Victorian schoolmistresses and Edwardian clergy and, although altered over the years, remains essentially a Tudor house. Surviving centuries of change, Sutton House retains many of its original features including oak panelling, linenfold panelled rooms, carved fireplaces and 17th century wall paintings. There is a flagged paved courtyard with mullion windows and wisteria-clad porches, and an Edwardian barn built in the Arts and Crafts style, presently used for concerts and performances.
