'It is interesting to note that, before they closed down for good, the Catherine Wheel and Windmill pubs in Sutton had no wireless, television or juke-box. When the Catherine Wheel closed, some men nailed a wreath onto the front door, such was the strength of local feeling . . . at the loss of such an important gathering place.'
