In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Sutton Place like this:
SUTTON, a tything in Woking parish, Surrey; on the river Wey, 4¼ miles NNE of Guildford. S. Place was a quadrangular mansion built, in the time of Henry VIII., by Sir R. Weston; was visited by Queen Elizabeth; suffered from fire immediately after her visit; underwent removal of its entrance-gateway side towards the end of last century; includes an ancient Roman Catholic chapel; and belongs now to the Salvins.
Sutton Place is now part of WOKING District. Click here for graphs and data of how WOKING has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Sutton Place itself, go to Statistics.
