Late Victorian houses in Yorke Road. The 1896 1:2,500 map marks the road as York Road, but later editions add an "e", which is historically more correct - the Yorkes, Earls of Hardwicke, contributed a total of 5 MPs to Reigate in the late 18th/early 19th Centuries. Another road, Hardwicke Road, comes off Yorke Road - the start of it can just be seen on the far left of this photo.
