Raising Money To Build Sutton Hospital 1931
Ron & Ernest Webb were among the hundreds of people collecting money throughout the day of the fete. This photo was taken in the back garden of their home Sundew in Benhill Avenue, Sutton. The fete continued until midnight with attractions such as steam roundabouts, Punch & Judy, pony rides and swing boats. With the Sutton Red Cross Band providing the music for dancing in the evening the enormously popular day raised £2140 towards the building of the new Sutton and Cheam Hospital.
