Horley
Horley is a town in Surrey that surrounds Surrey and West Sussex. It is south of the twin towns of Reigate and Redhill, and neighbouring Gatwick Airport and Crawley. The town is at an altitude of around 54 metres above sea level and encompasses 4.34 square miles. It has a population of 21232. The Horley Master Plan, passed by Reigate and Banstead Borough Council in February 2005, enables the development of almost 2600 new houses. This will cover the Metropolitan Green Belt, which is allowed if the local plan measures up to national criteria, including the ability to show environmental sustainability and sustaining the character of localities. Owing to frequent and quick train connections to London from Horley Train Station, Horley qualifies as a commuter town. 2 thirds of the working population commute to London or Crawley, with the remaining one third working regionally. Horley has a considerable economy of its own, including the presence of business parks and a long high street consisting of industrial chain stores and independent companies. It was the home of the Matbro works, which produced forklift trucks between the 1950s and the 1980s and founded telescopic handlers, which were popular with farmers and building companies. A popular attraction is the Archway Theatre, located under the arches of the Victoria Road train bridge; the theatre features a bar, an auditorium with a seat capability of 95, and a studio theatre seating 40 people.
