=Sulhampsted House=, 178.
Sullivan, Right Hon. John, 175. (_see Richings Lodge_)
=Sutton Place=, 26, the seat of J. W. Weston, Esq. This structure, which
was built about the year 1530, is composed of brick, finished with a
double sculptured plat band of a yellowish brick, running round the top,
with coins and window cases of the same; and, according to the style of
the time in which it was built, is a handsome building. The form is
quadrangular, encompassing an area of near eighty feet square; the
principal entrance being by a gateway, having a lofty hexagonal turret
at each angle, with coins of the yellow brick above mentioned,
alternately charged with R. W. and a Tun, being a quaint device for the
name of the builder, R. Weston. The north side of this edifice is
entirely occupied by a hall, 50 feet long, 25 wide, and 31 high. The
present owner has made great improvements in the house and grounds.

=Ugbrook House=, 118, the seat of Lord Clifford. This mansion is
situated on the declivity of an eminence: its form is quadrangular, with
two fronts and four towers, with battlements, and it is rough casted.
The apartments are spacious, elegant, and most superbly decorated,
assisted by a valuable collection of pictures. The library contains an
ample and choice collection of ancient and modern books. The grounds
surrounding this mansion are upwards of seven miles in circumference,
containing every variety of object that constitute beautiful scenery,
happily blended, and forming one of the most enchanting spots
imaginable. On an eminence, in these grounds, is the remains of a Danish
encampment, of an eliptic shape, surrounded with a trench, and overhung
with majestic oaks, from whence the most noble and extensive prospects
are obtained. To attempt a particular description of the internal
beauties of this demesne, would, from the limits of our work, be
absolutely impossible.
=Upland House=, 222.
