MILTON-COURT, an old red-brick Tudor mansion, in Dorking parish, Surrey; 1¼ mile SSW of Dorking. It contains a fine old staircase, and is now a farm-house. It was long the residence, till his death, of Jeremiah Markland, known for his labours on Euripides and Statins; and is said to have been visited by Porson, out of respect for Markland. A tumulus, marked by a clump of firs, is on an adjacent heath; and a considerable part of Stane-street, here called Milton-street, is in the neighbourhood.
