Limpsfield

Limpsfield is a village and civil parish in the Tandridge district of Surrey, England. It lies south of the North Downs and east of the River Eden. The village is located approximately 20 miles south of central London.

The history of Limpsfield can be traced back to the Domesday Book of 1086, where it is recorded as "Limpestede." The parish church, St. Peter's, has parts that date back to the 12th century. Limpsfield was historically a rural community, with agriculture forming its economic base. Over time, its proximity to London led to a gradual increase in its population, with many residents commuting to the city.

Today, Limpsfield retains a village atmosphere with a mix of historical and modern housing. It offers local amenities including shops, pubs, and a primary school. The surrounding countryside provides recreational opportunities, with footpaths and open spaces accessible to residents and visitors. The Limpsfield Chart, a significant area of woodland and heathland, is a notable natural feature adjacent to the village. The parish also encompasses the hamlet of Limpsfield Chart, which is geographically distinct but administered as part of the civil parish.
