Sutton Mills c1900
With thanks to Tony Ingham for providing the scans and comments.
This shot taken in the 1930s. The houses on Holme Lane are just being built, then lower and to the right there is the
Sutton Football Club pavilion*.
*The field I am referring to is the triangular shaped field on the top right of the photograph. There is a
small building in the left corner and it's just possible to see part of another small building in the opposite
corner. There also appears to be a cricket pitch in the photograph.
