Tattenham Corner & Preston sits on the northern edge of Reigate and Banstead in Surrey, abutting the open chalkland of Epsom Downs. The area is famous for the sweeping bend at Epsom Downs Racecourse known as Tattenham Corner, and the ward combines leafy suburban streets, inter‑war housing and later estates with easy access to green spaces such as Banstead Heath.
Race days still punctuate the local calendar and bring a lively influx of visitors, but for most residents it is a predominantly residential, commuter community with regular trains from Tattenham Corner into central London, local shops, schools and active neighbourhood groups. Property values reflect the mixture of greenery and transport links, while the long association with horseracing gives the area a distinctive historic character.
