Sutton Bonington history

---

Sutton and Bonington were two settlements, probably originating in Anglo-Saxon times. In the Domesday Book of 1086 the villages were recorded as “Sudtone” and “Bonitone” The two villages gradually grew together along the edge of the flood plain of the River Soar to make one long, narrow village. The total length of the village is now 1.25 miles (2.01 km) not including the university campus.

University

The university campus was originally the Midland Agricultural and Dairy College, which formed in the first decades of the 20th century. The site was used as a prisoner of war camp during the First World War. In 1948 the college became part of the University of Nottingham.
