Marble Hill House was built by George II., for Lady Suffolk, after designs by the Earl of Pembroke; passed to the Peels: and is now the residence of General Peel. The gardens connected with it were laid out by Pope. Marble-Hill Cottage was once the residence of Lady Di. Beauclere, and of Mrs. Clive the actress.
