Description
Sutton-Deyman House is two-storey Tudor Revival dwelling. It occupies a triangular waterfront lot at the point where the Otonobee River spreads westward to form the bay known locally as 'the Goose Pond'. The property is recognized for its heritage value by the City of Peterborough Bylaw 1995-077.
Heritage value
The heritage value of the Sutton-Deyman house lies in its association with the prominent Peterborough architect, Walter R.L. Blackwell. Built in 1926, the Sutton-Deyman House is a well-preserved interpretation of the Tudor Revival. While the style was popular in the 1920's and 1930's, few examples were built in Peterborough and nearly all of these were built by the local architect, Walter R.L. Blackwell. Walter was the son of William Blackwell, one of Peterborough's first well-known architects, and later became a part of his father's firm, Craig, Zeidler and Strong.
