Sudley House was built in 1821 by Liverpool corn merchant Nicholas Robinson (1769-1854). He had bought the land it stands on, some 30 acres, for 拢4,500 in 1809 from the Tarleton family, as part of the sale of their Aigburth estate. The architect of the house was probably a local man, John Whiteside Casson (1767-1842).

 
In 1986, Liverpool County Museums, including Sudley, became the National Museums & Galleries on Merseyside. It’s now known as National Museums Liverpool. Since the 1990s, we have been gradually returning the downstairs rooms to the style in which they were decorated and furnished when the Holts lived in the house. 
 
visitors experience the feeling of stepping back in time and seeing the house in the same style that George and Emma Holt loved.
