Hutton in the Forest
Hutton in the Forest is a Grade I listed country house near Skelton in Cumbria, evolved from a medieval stronghold with later additions from the 17th to 19th centuries. The building retains a surviving pele tower and an ensemble of interiors and gardens spanning the 1630s to the Victorian period, and the estate includes terraces, a walled garden and a small nearby church.

As it stood in 1870
The shape it held in its prime.
Low, long country house of warm red-brown sandstone with crenellated parapets and stepped battlemented towers; a surviving medieval pele tower projects at one end as a taller, battlemented block. Three storeys of regularly spaced rectangular windows are punctuated by taller Gothic-arched windows on one facade; a central flight of stone steps descends to broad terraced lawns. The house sits within mature specimen trees, terraces and a visible walled garden set back from the main lawn.
