HUTTON-IN-THE-FOREST
The property has belonged to Lord Inglewood's family, the Fletchers, and Fletcher Vanes, for 400 years. It is built around a medieval pele tower and has 17th, 18th and 19th century additions. Its contents were collected by them over that period. Of particular interest are a series of family portraits including "Walter Vane and his family" by Hogarth, a noteworthy collection of English furniture, tapestries, both English and continental, china, in particular oriental and delftware. There are extensive grounds with terraces, topiary, walled garden, dovecote and a woodland walk through magnificent specimen trees.
