Addington House, the country residence of the Archbishops of Canterbury, 1862. Creator: Unknown
Addington House, the country residence of the Archbishops of Canterbury, 1862. Addington House, in which Dr, Sumner died, has only been the country seat of the Archbishops of Canterbury since 1807-8. Croydon Palace had been their residence since the time of William the Conqueror...There Elizabeth was entertained for a week by Archbishop Parker in 1573. It is now in ruins, turned into a bleaching- ground. In 1807 Addington Palace was purchased by Archbishop Manners Sutton. Archbishop Howley built a chapel, enlarged the house, and made considerable additions of land to the estate...The estate is now a very extensive one, between two and three miles round, the park and grounds being of the most beautiful description. The little church beneath whose shadow Primate Sumner now rests contains the vaults in which Archbishop Manners Sutton was buried, July 21, 1828, and Archbishop Howley, Feb. 19, 1848'.
