Buildings on Kingston Road built in the 1920s/30s. The building on the left, no 70, now housing a sports shop and fitness centre, is marked on the 1963-4 1:2,500 map as a Co-operative Hall. From 1975 to 1987 it was the home of Surrey Sound Studios, set up by brothers Chris and Nigel Gray and used by a number of bands, including The Police, whose first two 2 albums, Outlandos d'Amour and Reggatta de Blanc were recorded here.
