Sutton

I am a Sutton girl, and have lived here all my life. I can remember the army barracks on the A217 but my husband says I am dreaming, can anyone out there confirm I am right?

RE: RE: Sutton

I was born in Sutton in 1937 and seem to remember an Italian prisoner-of-war camp on the A217 at Belmont in the 40's or 50's. I also remember Italian prisoners building a temporary sorting office for the mail on the corner of Grove Road and Bridge Road. Hope this helps!
