SurreyEpsom

Epsom, now forms part of the suburbs of London. 

Its location, between the Greater London conurbation and the rolling hills of Surrey, makes the commuter town one of the most desirable places to live in the UK. 

Epsom was once a spa town but a housing estate now stands on the site of the wells.  Epsom Salts, named after the town, were originally created by boiling down the mineral waters at Epsom. 

The great attraction of this area is the Epsom Downs Racecourse.  This famous racecourse presents an exciting racing programme throughout the summer season and each June hosts the prestigious Derby (currently known as the Vodafone Derby).  One of the five classic thoroughbred races, the Derby is the second leg of the English Triple Crown, preceeded by the 2,000 Guineas and followed by the St Ledger.  The same course at Epsom is used for the 'Oaks' and the 'Cornonation Cup'.  

Between Epsom and Chessington stands Horton Children's Farm, a sister attraction to Godstone Farm.  Larger than a city farm, this has a wide range of animals including cows, ponies, sheep, chickens, ducks, pigs, rabbits, alpacas and a llama.  There are also lots of baby animals to pet and other fun activities such as a maze, Fort Horton play area and a soft-play barn.
