In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Clopton like this:
CLOPTON HOUSE, a seat 1 mile N of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwick. It was built in the 15th century; belonged to the Cloptons; and passed to the Wards. Sir Hugh Clopton, in 1742, entertained Garrick, Macklin, and Delany here, under Shakspeare's mulberry-tree.
Clopton is now part of STRATFORD ON AVON District. Click here for graphs and data of how STRATFORD ON AVON has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Clopton itself, go to Statistics.
