  	Sutherland had only been in possession of the estate for a few months when, in the same year of his acquisition the house burned down for the second time in its history. The Duke was prompt in commissioning the architect Charles Barry to rebuild Cliveden in the style of an Italianate villa (Barry's most famous project is arguably the Houses of Parliament, Westminster). The third (and present) house on the site was completed in 1851-2 and its exterior appearance has little changed to this day.
