Horley is a town and civil parish in the borough of Reigate and Banstead, in Surrey, England, lying close to the Surrey–Sussex border and immediately south of Gatwick Airport. It sits beside the M23 and the Brighton Main Line, giving it strong transport links and a commuter-friendly character while also making airport-related activity a prominent local feature.
Historically centred on the medieval parish church of St Bartholomew's Church, the settlement grew significantly with the arrival of the railway in the 19th century and later with Gatwick’s expansion. Today the economy mixes commuter housing, airport and logistics employment, light industry and a busy high street, and the parish retains conservation areas, community clubs, markets and green spaces that reflect both its village origins and modern suburban life.
