Ashtead
Ashtead is a village inside the Metropolitan Green Belt of Surrey. The Ashtead Residents' Association, established in 1945, aims to represent the views of all who reside in Ashtead through a network of 142 Road Stewards and frequent meetings. Ashtead features a substantial two-part conservation area including the mansion Ashtead House utilised by City of London Freemen's School, and six other schools. Amenities include parks, outlying woodland trails as well as a high street with convenience shopping, cafes and restaurants, a football club and a cricket club. There has been settlement in Ashtead since at least the Roman period, with a Roman villa excavated in what is now Ashtead Common. Ashtead appears within the Domesday Book as Stede. The oldest portion of Ashtead has the main shopping and social area of the village, with two pubs and the Ashtead Village Club which is a C&IU affiliate. It features a small southern conservation area, however outside of this has eight listed brick buildings, both over two centuries old, including the Old Rectory which has been subdivided into Ashtead Lodge, Forge Cottage and Wisteria Cottage which are dated to roughly the 17th century and are also Grade II listed. The location north of the railway line is Ashtead Common, which is managed by the City of London Corporation due to a long-standing preservation order, and is a national nature reserve. Lower Ashtead is a relatively flat location leading to Ashtead Common that features a recreation ground, a youth club and skate park, a pub, along with a range of shops all built near the preserved large square of wood in front of the railway station. Ashtead Park contains three significant listed buildings and four lakes/ponds.
