Sutton Coldfield is known as being one of Birmingham’s more affluent areas with its range of high end restaurants and pricey homes.
The suburb is also home to some top restaurants in Birmingham, and it lies just five miles from Birmingham city centre and is easily accessible by road or rail.
We’ve taken a look back over the town’s history with some brilliant old photos from the 1900s.
