Local Information for Godstone

Map powered by MapPress

The Surrey town of Godstone, located just 6 miles from Reigate, is steeped in history and natural beauty. While the town has a Saxon past, the Plague destroyed the village built around St. Nicholas Church. In its place was a town featuring two centres, connected by Bullbeggars Lane. The two centres, ChurchTown and Godstone Green, are conservation areas.

Quiet Church Town features a number of 15th century timber-framed buildings, such as the Old Packhouse. As the name would suggest, Church Town is dominated by St Nicholas Church with the St Mary’s Victorian almshouses located beside it.

Godstone Green, developed in the 16th century was a haven for coaches and horses and features many inns including the White Hart Pub. The Green’s pond was a watering hole for horses stopping off in the town.

Godstone is well placed for travel in the region as well as nationally. Junction 6 of the M25 is a short access to national routes via the nearby M25. The nearby A22 trunk road offers a quick route to Eastbourne, Purley and East Grinstead, while the A25 calls at Reigate, Dorking and Guildford.

Local Information for Thamesmead

Drive your car to the southern bank of the Thames in London and spread across the boroughs of Bexley and Greenwich you’ll find the town of Thamesmead. Built as a ‘new town’, it housed many of the families being moved out of Central London due to the clearing of slum areas, and was done so over land that was previously occupied by the Royal Arsenal over Erith and Plumstead Marshes.

In 1953, the North Sea Floods swamped the area so many of the planned houses were to be built at least two storeys high with garages only to be on ground level. There is still a stigma attached to the area due to its beginnings in life as a council overflow area and it is also directly in the flight path of planes coming into London City Airport.

But housing is still being constructed and prices are not too expensive (due in part to the continuing stigma, but also because of the poor transport links to the area), considering its proximity to the city centre.

Much of the original housing was built by the Greater London Council, which was abolished in 1986, and everything was handed over to the non-profit Thamesmead Town Limited, which was done away with in 2000. Gallions Housing Association assumed ownership and management of the housing assets and Tilfen Land took control of the undeveloped land.
