Nobel House

Image: © Ian Capper Taken: 29 Aug 2011

Completed in 2011, this new development consists of 126 flats, some of which are assigned to "key workers", with retail space on the ground floor it replaces the former Queensway House, containing a Lidl Supermarket, which itself had replaced the former Redhill branch of Safeways Supermarkets. The name commemorates Alfred Nobel, inventor of dynamite and founder of the Nobel prizes, who first demonstrated dynamite in 1867 in a nearby Merstham Quarry.
