Because that's how the indiginous population pronounce it if me memory is correct. I remember a discussion on a racing programme many many years ago. I hope this clarifies the matter.

According to Hayley Turner who was brought up there it is South-Well.

I thought it was supposed to be a contraction of "Southern Well", hence Suthel.
It's a bit like Honiton in Devon, which is a contraction of "Honey Town", hence Hunniton. |
