C'est le plus beau spécimen de l'utilisation de la terre cuite et briques en Angleterre, et en couleur au moins dépasse de loin l'autre exemple à Tiptree dans l'Essex ; bien que les deux maisons ont été construites à peu près au même moment où le travail est curieusement différentes.

. The Victoria history of the county of Surrey. Natural history. A HISTORY OF SURREY Soon after this, in 1529, Sutton Place near Guildford was built. This is the finest specimen of the use of terra cotta and brick in England, and in colour at least far surpasses the other leading example at Layer Marney in Essex ; although the two houses were built about the same time the work is curiously dissimilar. About this period bricks began to be freely used for chimneys and for the bases of walls and filling m of panels ; it was some time however before the walls of ordinary houses were in this county built of brick except in the London districts. How little its use and advantages were understood is shown by the fact that timber bond continued to be used and prescribed up to modern times, to the infinite ruin of buildings. In the south-west of the county there is an interesting class of buildings composed of the rough Bargate stone and ornamental brick- work ; the Bargate filling corresponds to the flint found in other coun- ties. The buildings are so straightforward and free from undue straining after style as to be well worthy of attention. The two best examples are the two houses in the High Street of Godalming ; of these the back of one, which is dated 1663, is shown (Fig. i) ; the projection of the brickwork in these examples is only from I to 11 inch. A house by the mill at Shalford is of this kind of work and is somewhat like Slyfields Manor, built about 1614, although the capitals of the pilasters at Slyfields are unusually bold. What is left of the Old King's Head at Dorking has remains of similar cornices and other brickwork and transomed and muUioned win- dows composed entirely of bricks. At Farnham are the remains of the Town Hall, which must have been a very ornate little building (Fig. 2): unfortunately the street front, which is said to have borne the date 1657, ^^^ ^^^^ taken down. There is a very pretty front of fancy brickwork of about this date at Crosswa
