In homage to the History of the World in 100 Objects, by Neil McGregor, made during his time as Director of the British Museum, Sutton Libraries is running an Object of the Month.
August’s object was a brick revealing the family run business of Cheam bricks and some interesting stories surrounding the members of the Waghorn family including a court case with the wife of William Richard Waghorn (founder of the Waghorn pottery).

Sutton Council is working in partnership with Sutton College to provide some Halloween-themed activities for the whole family during the school half term holidays.
From pumpkin carving to freaky face-painting there is a lot going on. Course prices ranging from £5 to £10 . Children’s attendance is free of charge – except for the face painting session where the cost is £3 per child. All children must be accompanied and only two children are allowed per adult.
To find out more about what is going on, and check on any further requirements, contact Sutton College on 020 8289 4700.
Colouring-in and reading sessions will be available at Sutton Library on Saturday 21 October 2017 and Sunday 22 and 29 October 2017.
