Nutfield and South Nutfield

Nutfield lies on the western edge of the Tandridge District. For many years the main industry in the area was the extraction of the mineral Fuller's Earth. This has now ceased, but the years of quarrying have had a significant impact on the area and restoration programmes are underway.

One former quarry on the Nutfield/Merstham border has been developed as a lake, Mercers Park and is used for water sports, such as windsurfing and canoeing.

South Nutfield lies south of the A25 and grew around the railway during the mid 19th century. It is a fairly large settlement with a commuter population making use of the station.

Despite its name, Redhill Aerodrome lies within Nutfield Parish. The Aerodrome was established in 1934 and was used by fighter aircraft in the Second World War. Its grass runway has since been used by flying clubs, helicopter companies and for private flying.
