Join us for this short walk around the neighbourhood of St Nicholas Sutton.

We will meet at noon at the Tower Door of St Nicholas. This walk and talk will stress the importance of chalk and limestone in the development of Sutton.

You are very welcome to this series of Talks and Walks in which Jeff Richards, a trustee of the Friends of St Nicholas Churchyard, explores some of the stories from St Nicholas’s and Sutton’s past. He is a partial, prejudiced & ignorant historian and everything he says will cause proper historians to throw up their hands in horror.

Sutton Soup – It’s the sociable way of raising money for local good causes.

​You come along and pay £5 for a meal of homemade soup and bread.  You get to hear four pitches from local people who need funding for a project that benefits the Sutton community.  You get to vote for the one you like best.  The winner of the vote gets to keep ALL the money we take on the door on the night.  That means your £5!  By coming together that £5 turns into hundreds of pounds for the winner.

Chancery English is used to describe the written English of the clerks of Chancery in London.

These are the clerks who prepared the king’s documents. Before the 1430s, official records were mainly in Latin and French, but after that date mainly in an English dialect. Two of the vicars of Sutton were instrumental in this process.
