Burlington House was formerly Suffolk Lawn and during the second half of the 19th century was Suffolk Hall Preparatory School. Oriana Souper who married Edward Wilson of Scott's ill-fated South Pole expedition was a matron here for a short time. During War World I the building was used as a Voluntary Aid Detachment. In the 1830s, the house was home to the actress Harriet Mellon, first wife of the 9th Duke of St Albans. Today the building is offices.
