Places to see in ( Reigate - UK )

Reigate is a town of over 20,000 inhabitants in eastern Surrey, England. It is in the London commuter belt and one of three towns in the borough of Reigate and Banstead. Reigate is sited at the foot of the North Downs and extends over part of the Greensand Ridge. Reigate has a medieval castle and has been a market town since the medieval period, when it also became a parliamentary borough.

Colley Hill, one mile (1.6 km) north-west of Reigate, is 722 feet (220 m) high. Reigate Hill, 2.5 miles (4.0 km) due east of Colley Hill, is 771 feet (235 m) high, and they both have panoramas along the North Downs Way. Reigate has two windmills: a post mill on Reigate Heath and a tower mill on Wray Common. In the medieval period the parish had other windmills, about a dozen animal-powered mills for oatmeal and watermills on the southern parish boundary with the Mole and Redhill Brook

The town centre is, save for the castle, focused on Bell Street, leading south, and a long High Street/West Street conservation area with shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. Between the streets is a Morrisons supermarket. The other central supermarket is an M&S. The swathe of land from the town southwards, including the adjacent town of Redhill, is sometimes grouped together as the Gatwick Diamond, M23 corridor or Crawley Urban Area across more than 15 miles (24 km) into West Sussex. These three largely synonymous areas are interspersed with Metropolitan Green Belt land and are used by planners to highlight connectivity to Gatwick Airport and in respect of two, the city of Brighton and Hove.

Skimmington is a small hamlet made up of Skimmington Cottages, Heathfield Farm and Nursery, and on the C-road, Flanchford Road, Reigate Heath Golf Club House and Course. The Skimmington Castle (the most historic building, Grade II-listed) pub is by the cottages. Half of this hamlet is within the post town, being in the far south west of Reigate. Woodhatch is the southern suburb of Reigate with one main curved parade of shops leading away from each side of the pre-20th century route of the London to Brighton road.

Reigate is served by Reigate railway station. At peak times a few direct trains run to London Victoria and London Bridge at 40-minute intervals. Off-peak trains run to Gatwick Airport, Reading, Redhill and London Bridge. Trains to London are run by the Southern Railway company and those to Gatwick Airport and Reading by Great Western Railway. Reigate is a few minutes from Junction 8 of the London orbital M25 motorway. The town's one-way system includes parts of the A25 and the A217. Reigate is linked to Redhill by the Metrobus. Other bus routes also link the town to other areas in and around Redhill and Reigate.

Royal Earlswood Asylum (former) ~ Victoria Court

The Royal Earlswood Hospital or The Royal Earlswood Asylum in Redhill, Surrey, England was the first establishment to cater specifically for people with learning disabilities. Previously they had been housed either in asylums for the mentally ill or in workhouses. Around 1847, Ann Serena Plumbe took an interest in the plight of the learning disabled, or idiots as they were termed at the time, and began to discuss what could be done to assist them. In discussion with Dr John Conolly (of the Hanwell Asylum) and Rev Dr Andrew Reed (a philanthropist and founder of several orphanages) they determined to educate such people. In the spring of 1847 Reed toured Europe to gather information on institutions serving the purpose, and in October the project to found the Asylum began. Lord Palmerston, Baron Rothschild and Lord Ashley became officers of the charity. In 1848 a building was purchased and the first patients admitted. This building, Park House at Highgate, quickly proved to be too small and a new building was commissioned. Several designs were submitted in competition and a Mr. Moffat's was chosen. The builder was John Jay of London Wall, whose varied work included substantial railway construction contracts, rebuilding the Houses of Parliament after the 1833 fire, and smaller architect-designed projects such as the Abney Park Chapel and Trinity Independent Chapel. The building was entirely financed by public subscription and Queen Victoria subscribed 250 guineas in the name of Edward Prince of Wales, who became a life member. Prince Albert took a special interest from the beginning. He laid the foundation stone in June 1853 and The Royal Earlswood's first residents moved in on April 15, 1855, and the official opening day was July 5th that year. Prince Albert, husband of Queen Victoria, officiated. An exhibition of the hospital memorabilia can be seen at a museum in Teddington, Middlesex.
In 1862 Queen Victoria conferred a Royal Charter on the asylum.
John Langdon Down (after whom Down's syndrome was named) was medical superintendent of the hospital from 1855 to 1868.
At this time patients slept in fifteen-bed dormitories and there was one member of staff to each seven patients.
Tuberculosis accounted for the majority of deaths in the institution. Patients were taught manual trades such as carpentry, printing and brush-making, as well as domestic, garden and farm duties. On 5 July 1958 the hospital ceased to be a charitable trust and was absorbed into the National Health Service.
A notable inmate was James Henry Pullen who carved wonderful works of art and built detailed models, including one of Brunel's Great Eastern. For several decades, Katherine and Nerissa Bowes-Lyon, who were nieces of the Queen Mother and first cousins of HM The Queen, lived in the hospital;
A cousin of the Queen who spent 55 years of her life being cared for at the Royal Earlswood Hospital, in Redhill, has died.
Katherine Bowes-Lyon died, aged 87, on February 23rd 2014.
A private family funeral was held. It is believed Miss Bowes-Lyon lived at a care home in Surrey since the closure of the Royal Earlswood Hospital in 1997. She began her residency at the hospital – now converted to luxury apartments – in 1941, when she was 14. Miss Bowes-Lyon and her sister, Nerissa, were two of the daughters of John Herbert Bowes-Lyon and his wife Fenella. As John was the brother of Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, the Queen Mother, the two daughters were first cousins of Queen Elizabeth II, sharing one pair of grandparents – Claude Bowes-Lyon, 14th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, and Nina Bowes-Lyon, Countess of Strathmore and Kinghorne. The Royal Earlswood Hospital provided accommodation for some 230 men and women affected by mental illness at the time of its closure. Katherine Bowes-Lyon was placed in the hospital, in Asylum Arch Road, Earlswood Common, along with her sister Nerissa and three of their cousins – Idonea, Ethelreda and Rosemary Fane – during the Second World War. Nerissa died on January 22, 1986 aged 66. She was buried in a humble plot at Redstone Cemetery, Redhill. By the Surrey Mirror | Posted: April 03, 2014. The hospital closed in 1997, as part of the Government's long-term plan to transfer the care of people with learning disabilities into the community, and was converted into apartments: the development is called Royal Earlswood Park & the main building is now called Victoria Court. A number of the buildings are listed buildings: the main building, the workshop, and the two gate lodges.

Places to see in ( Redhill - UK )

Redhill is a town in the borough of Reigate and Banstead in Surrey, England. The town, which adjoins the town of Reigate to the west, is due south of Croydon in Greater London, and is part of the London commuter belt. The town is also the post town of and an entertainment and commercial area of three adjoining communities: Merstham, Earlswood and Whitebushes, as well as of two small rural villages to the east in the Tandridge District, Bletchingley and Nutfield.

Redhill is sited about 3 miles south of a minor pass at Merstham (elevation of around 120 m (390 ft) compared to a height of around 180 m (590 ft) on either side) in the North Downs, through which passes the London-Brighton road. Beneath this pass, two rival railway companies excavated the Merstham tunnels, which are still used by regular commuter trains and goods transport, with the two railway lines intersecting to the south of Redhill station. A major factor in the development of the town was the coming of the railways. Redhill railway station continues to be an important junction.

Richard Carrington, an amateur astronomer, moved to Redhill in 1852, and built a house and observatory. Dome Way, where Redhill's only tower block stands, is named after it. The site suited an isolated observatory, being on a spur of high ground surrounded by lower fields and marsh. Here in 1859 he made astronomical observations that first corroborated the existence of solar flares as well as their electrical influence upon the Earth and its aurorae. In 1863 he published records of sunspot observations that first demonstrated differential rotation in the Sun. In 1865 ill health prompted him to sell his house and move to Churt, Surrey.

The natural gap in the North Downs north of Merstham is at an elevation of 120 metres (390 ft) above sea level. From this point run gently undulating slopes of significant chalk, sand, and some fuller's earth deposits, underlying regular (fertile) humus topsoil in the distance to Redhill's town centre (elevation around 75 metres or 250 feet). Similarly, Reigate High Street, further along the Holmesdale gap, is at an elevation of around 85 metres or 280 feet with a small hill immediately to the north where Reigate Castle is sited. Redhill Common, now partly built on at St John's, is on the Greensand Ridge.

The Redhill Brook runs through the town, mainly culverted, and upstream to the immediate north-east of the town are The Moors nature reserve and the large 2010–2012 (mid and low-rise) Watercolour housing development, comprising 25 acres (10 ha) of lakes, paths and wildlife habitat managed by the Surrey Wildlife Trust.

Redhill is at the junction of the A23 and A25 roads. The M25 and M23 motorways are within three miles. Redhill railway station is at the junction of three lines: the main London to Brighton line, the North Downs Line from Redhill to Reading, and the Redhill to Tonbridge Line. Numerous bus services are operated to the town, by Arriva, Metrobus and Southdown PSV. In May 2008, route 100 to Crawley became part of the Fastway bus rapid transport system, following redevelopment of Redhill bus station.
