Sutton House

Sutton House is a historic residence, formerly known as Bryck Place. Built in 1535, it is considered the second oldest house of this type in East London. Although it largely represents the style characteristic of the Tudor dynasty, it also has an Edwardian chapel. The interiors are lined with oak panels, and carved fireplaces draw attention. It has housed a museum, a cafe, a gallery and a souvenir shop since 1994.

The residence was built by the first Secretary of State at Henry VIII, Sir Ralph Sadleir. Over the next centuries, the house changed owners many times, only since the 1930s it belongs to the National Trust. During World War II, the building served as the headquarters of civil defense - Fire Wardens.

Sutton House is often used when filming documentaries. It was also here that the television adaptation of the novel "The Witcher" by Terry Pratchett was created.
