The House by the Ebrook

The "House by the Ebrook" may still be seen near the bridge over the stream, just below New Hall Mill. The following piece, which perhaps bears the "stamp of modernity" in some of its numbers, is based on a tradition in a Sutton family once well known in the district. The Ebrook is the stream that runs out of Sutton Park, under the main Birmingham road, and then on to New Hall and Penns.
