Tandridge

Tandridge is a district in eastern Surrey, in South East England, combining towns, villages and open countryside. Principal settlements include Oxted, Caterham, Godstone, Lingfield and Warlingham. The district council is based in Oxted. Caterham is commonly described in two parts, Caterham on the Hill and Caterham Valley, reflecting the way the town sits on the scarp. Oxted station on the Oxted Line provides regular services into central London, and local roads link communities to surrounding towns and commuter routes. Markets, parish halls and sports clubs form part of everyday life across the area.

Much of Tandridge is rural: farms, woodlands and the chalk escarpment of the North Downs cross the district. Sections fall within the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a network of public footpaths and bridleways connects villages and greens. Lingfield Park Racecourse lies in the east of the district and stages fixtures on a floodlit all‑weather track. Local services, small business parks and agricultural activity sit alongside residential areas, and the pattern of settlements reflects historic lanes and parish boundaries.
