Tadworth
Tadworth is a large country town in Surrey in the south-east of the Epsom Downs, part of the North Downs. It creates part of the Borough of Reigate and Banstead. At the 2001 census Tadworth had a population of 9,522. Neighbouring settlements consist of Walton-on-the-Hill, Kingswood, Epsom, Burgh Heath, Banstead, Reigate. Tadworth lay within the Copthorne hundred, a management department devised by the Saxons and also later adopted by the Normans. There are no gutters draining pipes the area as the chalk easily takes in water on the Downs. The Tattenham Corner Branch Line forms a deep, bent cutting running past yards in the centre of the town as it resorts to the racecourse to the north, and gets here from a passage promptly southern of the Tadworth Roundabout protecting the carefully wooded heath there. The town adjoins in its north-west edge the top of Langley Vale, topped by the Iron Age room in South Tadworth Farm. Epsom Downs Racecourse is home to The Derby and also creates an adjoining growth with the Tattenhams, a ward consisting of: the neighbourhoods of Great Tattenhams in the north by Nork, Banstead; Little Tattenhams and also Tattenham Corner.
