Epsom Local Information
The market town of Epsom is in the Borough of Epsom and Ewell in
the English county of Surrey. Epsom lies on the chalk downland of
Epsom Downs. It is probably best known for the Epsom Derby, the
famous horse race that takes place on Epsom Downs every June. Because
of the racecourse, there are several training stables in the vicinity.
A former British Prime Minister, Lord Rosebery, was sent down from
Oxford University for buying a racehorse and entering it in the
Derby. The horse finished last. Lord Rosebery remained associated
with the town throughout his life and left land to the borough in
his will.
Historically Epsom was a spa town, with Epsom Salts being named
after the town. Visitors flocked to the town to take the waters
and housing development began. By 1730, the centre of fashion moved
to Bath, the building boom ended, shops were closed, and Epsom reverted
to a more sedate way of life.
Horse racing was so popular in Epsom that two railway stations
were opened to ease the traffic congestion that occurred every race
day. This prompted more residential development and the present
day town began to take shape. These stations now serve the many
commuters who travel to the capital daily for work.
It doesn’t matter where you go in Epsom, or anywhere else
