More about this scene

Hutton John was anciently part of the Baronry of Greystoke, and was held by the Hutton family. When Thomas Hutton died without an heir in the reign of Elizabeth I, the estate passed by marriage to Andrew Huddleston and the mansion became the main residence of the Huddleston family. It began as a square castellated pele tower to which was added a hall range. It was further extended and modernised in the 19th century.
