About this Assembly
Serving, supporting and protecting our local community
The Community Assembly of Sutton is located in an ancient parish originally in the county of Surrey and is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as having two churches and about 30 houses. Its location on the London to Brighton turnpike from 1755 led to the opening of coaching inns, spurring its growth as a village. When it was connected to central London by rail in 1847, it began to grow into a town, and it expanded further in the 20th century. It became a municipal borough with Cheam in 1934, and became part of Greater London in 1965.
The place name Sutton is recorded in the 1086 Domesday Book as Sudtone. It is formed from Old English 'sūth' and 'tūn', meaning 'south farm'. Surrey being the former Postal County of Sutton, Surrey is still often used for addresses in the town and we are using the regional location of Sutton as Surrey within the Community Assembly of the British Isles.
