Entrance to St Nicholas Centre, Sutton
The southern entrance to the pedestrianised High Street of the triple-floored shopping mall. The town's character appraisal comments that the "large buildings in these new developments interrupt the rhythm of the historic High Street and often introduce building materials and colours not in keeping with the older buildings" http://www.opinionsuite.com/sutton/highways-environment-and-planning/crossroads_consultation/supporting_documents/Draft%2520High%2520Street%2520Crossroads%2520Character%2520Appraisal.pdf&sa=U&ei=5eeATbbnBsqAhQebjomwBw&ved=0CBcQFjADOAo&sig2=8lw46Sn28imen48IJ-2lIA&usg=AFQjCNG6Am-Bz91MVyuhbV5VAhgyD8qVPg .

The Dolphin, Sutton
The pub has an air of being a pub no longer, although not boarded up and with hanging flower baskets. There are small red warning notices posted in the windows, but I did not cross the road to investigate.
