From the High-street diverge to the right and to the left numerous by-roads and residential thoroughfares, all well formed, and containing good class houses. One select portion of the town is that at the north end, round and about the pretty Green, and on the top of the hill at Benhilton. The little residential settlement that has here sprung up in close contiguity to the church of All Saints occupies the ground of what was once Sutton Common.
Eastward, stretching away towards Cheam are many very fine residential roads, and perhaps this part of Sutton is the choicest and most pleasant. One leaves the shops and

inns behind when turning out of the High-street, and very soon the road begins to wear quite a rural aspect. Many grand old specimens of English timber flourish on either side, here and there is a span of hedge bordering a meadow or paddock, and at intervals are substantial residences standing in their own luxuriant grounds. The houses grow larger and less in number and the grounds become more of a parklilce character as the pretty little village of Cheam is reached.
But to return to the High-street. This pleasant old -thoroughfare is, or rather was until quite recently, spanned by the signs of two inns, the Cock and the Greyhound, the former of which has long been famous as the last place for baiting on the way to the historic racecourse, and the first halting place on the way home. The street and yard in front of this hostelry present a wonderfully animated appearance on the “ Derby ” and “ Oaks ” days. The old hostelry, which was also famous as a posting house for the Brighton stage coaches in times gone by, and which had sheltered the heads of many great men in its time, has disappeared, and a gaudy modern red brick “hotel” has taken its place. Jackson, the celebrated pugilist, who has a pompous epitaph on his grave at Brompton, kept the Cock at Sutton at one time, and, being patronised by the Prince of Wales and a great many of the leading members of the sporting nobility and gentry, he was able in a short time to retire on a fortune of £10,000, well secured in the Funds. In the old inn was preserved the china tea service, made at the Rockingham works, used by George IV. on the occasion of his visits. It is stated that his majesty was fond of a cup of tea after his lunch and when the horses were being baited. William IV. also patronised the house on his way to and from

Brighton ; and on one occasion it is related that Admiral King, who had served in the Royal Navy with William, and was then living at Sutton Court, took the opportunity of the wait, whilst the horses in the king’s carriage were being changed, to pay his respects to his sovereign, a pleasant chat, followed by a hearty grip of the hand, on the parting of the “ two Kings,” ensuing.
The Greyhound inn, though its sign still remains pendant over the High-street as of yore, no longer presents its pleasant old-fashioned appearance, having become a victim to the rebuilding mania some few years ago.
As we have already indicated, the High-street is the chief commercial centre of Sutton, and here the gude-wife will find every element of advantage which ensues from a healthy j competition among well-managed commercial establishments. In some of the larger by-
