Undercroft, Raglan Road
A large locally listed house dating from the mid 19th century, one of a number from that period as the southern slopes of Reigate Hill were developed as a fashionable place to live. It is now divided into flats. At the end of the 19th century the residents were recorded as James Backhouse Crosfields (a tea dealer, quaker and ornithologist, who had served two terms as President of the Holmesdale Natural History Club - see Image), Herbert Crosfield and a Miss Crosfield. In 1913, a Miss Crosfield is still recorded as living there, with reference to her being a suffragette.

90 Reigate Hill
This house suffered fire damage a few years ago and has been left as ruin ever since, now so overgrown that it is hardly visible. Despite its position on a busy main road, it's surprising that it hasn't yet been redeveloped. The 1896 map suggests it was once a post office.

Friths Drive
Friths Drive is presumably named after the Frith family, whose company operated a photographic printing works in Reigate (see Image). The Godfrey Edition of an 1895 streetmap of Reigate mentions "St Ippolyts" on Reigate Hill as being the home of Eustace Frith, who was Francis Frith's son and who, with his brother Cyril, continued the work of Francis after his death in 1898. Although there is no indication of the precise location of St Ippolyts, either on that map or on other early maps I've seen, the proximity of Friths Drive to Reigate Hill suggests that it may have been in the immediate locality.
