Cllr. Hamish Pollock took these photos of more of our local heritage plaques that were refurbished recently in the council’s Environmental Improvements Programme masterminded by Carshalton Central ward Cllr. Jill Whitehead in her role as Chair of the Environment and Neighbourhoods Committee and council officers.…

Before the work started on refurbishment Cllr Jill Whitehead, Chair of Sutton Council’s Environment and Neighbourhoods Committee, said (in March 2014):

“Sutton has a rich history and it’s important that we preserve it. We are committed to promoting our borough’s heritage and ensuring that it is accessible and inspirational for local people, and fosters citizenship, civic pride and a sense of belonging. The plaques are tributes and reminders of Sutton’s past and I look forward to seeing them returned to their former glory.”
