Houses in South Walk, a road developed in the c.1920s following the demolition of Reigate Lodge.

This wall (or at least the section on the left) originally belonged to Reigate Lodge, a large 18th century mansion. The house was demolished in the 1920s and the land used for what is now Reigate College (see Image) and housing, for example Rushworth Road (see Image) and South Walk (seen here). However the surrounding walls and shrubbery were retained, giving some privacy to the houses built immediately behind them, such as these. The wall is locally listed.

These walls and gates originally belonged to Reigate Lodge, a large 18th century mansion, the lodge to which was situated at this entrance. The house was demolished in the 1920s and the land used for what is now Reigate College (see Image) and housing, for example Rushworth Road (see Image). However the surrounding walls and shrubbery were retained, giving some privacy to the houses built immediately behind them, here South Walk. The wall is locally listed.

This area was originally the grounds of Reigate Lodge, a large 18th century mansion. The house was demolished in the 1920s and the land used for what is now Reigate College (see Image) and housing, for example Rushworth Road (see Image). However the surrounding walls and shrubbery were retained, giving some privacy to the houses built immediately behind them, East Walk being along this section. Old maps suggest that the walls here are more recent than the older sections along Church Street (see Image) and Croydon Road, with the junction between Croydon Road and Church Street being widened, presumably at the time of the redevelopment of the site. Nevertheless the whole stretch of wall is locally listed.

Houses in The Crescent, a road developed in the c.1920s following the demolition of Reigate Lodge. Although separately named, the numbering in this road is continuous with that of the neighbouring Chart Way, off which it forms a short loop. However the 1963-4 1:2,500 marks the houses in both roads with names: Chart for no 20 (nearest) and Glen Goyt for no 18.
