General Statement
This website, begun in 2001, is the
product of my personal interest in the history of
the two neighbouring towns of Redhill and
Reigate. By creating the site I fulfilled an
aspect of my local history hobby and at the same
time supply a small service to local
people,ex-inhabitants who were interested in the
history and development of the two towns and
those with family connections or other interest
in a subject within these pages. From small
beginninings the site has grown (and is still
growing) to encompass more topics than were
originally envisaged. Much of this growth has
been due to material and information supplied by
visitors to the site and has been gratefully
received. Whatever your reason for visiting this
site I hope there is something of use or interest
here. - AJM
