21 homes at Beech Tree Place near Sutton Town centre are under threat of demolition by Sutton Council.

Beech Tree Place is also listed as a development site in Sutton’s Local Plan (Site STC 11).

In November 2018, it was reported that residents were ‘feeling intimidated and anxious’ as a result of the Council’s approach.
