Claygate Local Information
Clayagte is a large village in the County of Surrey. It’s
situated equidistantly from Heathrow and Gatwick airports and is
served by a good train service into London Waterloo station. It’s
a residential and commercial centre with shopping areas, pubs and
numerous restaurants. The name comes from the clay pits that used
to be in the village. Bricks from here were used in the building
of Hampton Court Palace.
Until the late 1800’s, Claygate was largely an agricultural
area. The population in 1881 stood at only 778 whereas now it is
upward of 7,000. The new railway line between Guildford and London
signaled the beginning of residential developments with many mansions
being built within the village. The majority of these have since
been demolished to make way for smaller housing developments. Just
two of the mansions still remain, Loseberry House and Ruxley Towers.
The largest source of employment in the village is the retail sector
but many of the shops are family-run businesses and therefore the
majority of Claygate’s residents need to commute into central
London for work.
It doesn’t matter where you go in Claygate, or anywhere else
in the London area, The Car Hire Company is there for you every
step of the way to ensure your car or van rental is a fabulous experience.
