Bassetlaw: Sutton: A232 - Court Road
Sutton straddles the edge of the London Basin beneath the North Downs in south London, a position that helped turn it into a transport and commercial centre between the capital and Surrey. Sutton Court Road forms part of the A232, a cross-town route linking the area with Ewell, Croydon and Orpington. The town grew rapidly after Sutton railway station opened in 1847, bringing regular rail connections into London. Today the centre combines broad traffic corridors, bus services, shops, offices and civic facilities, with residential streets extending beyond the main roads. Sutton is also the administrative centre of the London Borough of Sutton.
