Previous Lords:
The principal holder in Sutton at the time of the Domesday Survey was the Countess Judith, who held altogether six hides which subsequently became SUTTON MANOR. Her lands became part of the honour of Huntingdon, and the overlordship of Sutton followed the same descent as that of Potton manor (q.v.). The last reference that has been found to the overlordship is in 1428, when it was held of this honour.
Other Information:
Manorial Counsel Limited has created a new legal right to bring the titles of this lordship back into use.
