History of 54 High Street Sutton

On left of photo is C B Darby butchers, no.54. Up until WWII there were four butchers shops in the village, Clark, Darby, Linford and Swayer. Because of the shortage of meat, two shops, Sawyer and Linford, closed.

A yellow brick house labelled Boundary Villa stands next to a pink-painted house with dormer windows along a paved street.
