Sutton, Ontario

Sutton is a suburban community located nearly 2 km south of Lake Simcoe in Ontario, Canada.

The Canadian National rail runs south of Sutton and links with Toronto and Orillia as well as Northern Ontario.

The first inhabitants were Aboriginal people, as Sutton was a rich area for hunting, fishing, and gathering thousands of years ago.

The community was originally named Bourchier's Mills, but was renamed Sutton West in 1885, possibly after Sutton-on-Hull in East Yorkshire.
