HISTORICAL NOTE: Suffolk Square occupies land bought by the Earl of Suffolk from the de la Bere's, on which he built Suffolk House for his own residence; his daughter later sold much of the land, on which Suffolk Square now stands. James Fisher acquired land for the development in 1823. The Square is shown as built on Merrett's Map of 1834. All listed items in Suffolk Square form a very distinguished
group. (Blake S: Notes; Merrett HS: Plan of the Town of Cheltenham: 1834-).
