About

Leatherhead South & Ashtead South covers the southern parts of Leatherhead and Ashtead within Mole Valley. The ward contains a mix of residential streets and local shopping parades along the A246, together with primary schools, community centres and sports clubs. The River Mole runs through Leatherhead and is threaded by footbridges and river-side paths; close to the town centre the course of an old mill leat and a stone weir remain visible beside the main bridge. The area is served by Leatherhead and Ashtead rail stations, providing regular commuter links to surrounding towns and London.

Open space in the ward ranges from small parks and allotments to strips of woodland on the lower slopes of the North Downs, with patches of chalky soil and hedgerow lines between properties. Housing includes interwar terraces, Victorian villas and later estate developments, reflecting steady growth since the 19th century. Local life is organised around parish halls, youth groups and weekly community events, while small commercial clusters on high streets supply daily needs without large-scale retail centres.
