Chelsham and Farleigh in the district of Tandridge, Surrey, England is a small, largely rural area of scattered hamlets, lanes and farmland on the edge of the London commuter belt. The landscape of rolling fields, pockets of ancient woodland and quiet country lanes is dotted with historic farmhouses, a parish church and some timber‑framed buildings, giving the place a strong sense of local history and village character.
Locally the economy leans towards agriculture, equestrian activity and a few country estates, while many residents commute into London for work; Green Belt and conservation protections have helped retain the tranquillity. Social life is small‑scale and community‑focused, with footpaths and bridleways popular with walkers and riders and village institutions and seasonal events anchoring local life.
