About

Reigate ward covers the historic town centre and surrounding residential streets, forming the core of the borough. The area is defined by its mix of independent shops, supermarkets, and service businesses along the High Street and Bell Street. Housing ranges from Victorian terraces to modern developments and larger detached homes on the outskirts. The presence of Reigate Priory School and several churches contributes to the community's daily rhythm.

The ward's focal point is Reigate Priory Park, with its expansive grounds, lake, and the historic Priory building itself. A notable feature is the network of old caves and tunnels carved into the sandstone hill, once used as storerooms and now occasionally opened for tours. Transport links are central, with the railway station providing direct connections to London, while the A217 road runs through the area.
