Tadworth
Tadworth is a huge country town in Surrey in the south-east of the Epsom Downs, part of the North Downs. It develops part of the District of Reigate as well as 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, an administrative division devised by the Saxons as well as later adopted by the Normans. There are no watercourses draining the location as the chalk quickly absorbs water on the Downs. The Tattenham Corner Branch Line develops a deep, curved cutting running previous gardens in the centre of the village as it counts on the racecourse to the north, and also shows up from a tunnel immediately southern of the Tadworth Roundabout maintaining the carefully wooded health there. The village 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 creates an adjoining development with the Tattenhams, a ward containing: the neighbourhoods of Great Tattenhams in the north by Nork, Banstead; Little Tattenhams and Tattenham Corner.
