Suttle House, Wigton Road
Image: © Rose and Trev Clough Taken: 14 Jun 2011
Built in the late 18th century, originally a farm but as the estate was divided up the house and immediate grounds became a gentleman's residence. The house is a listed building (Grade II). More information, and a picture before it was boarded up, at Images of England http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=386923&mode=adv . Work started in about 2007/8 on a development of 41 houses and apartments in the grounds of Suttle House, but the builders have put it on hold "due to current market conditions".
