Places to see in ( Leatherhead - UK )
Leatherhead is a town in Surrey, England on the right bank of the River Mole, and at the edge of the contiguous built-up area of London. Its local district is Mole Valley. Records exist of the place from Anglo Saxon England. It has a combined theatre and cinema, which is at the centre of the re-modelling following late 20th century pedestrianisation. The bypass streets to the town centre close and feature annually in the London-Surrey cycle classic which is ranked by the world's cycling federation.
Just north-east of the midpoint of Surrey[n 1] and at a junction of ancient north–south and east–west roads, elements of the town have been a focus for transport throughout its history. A main early spur to this was the construction of the bridge over the seasonally navigable River Mole in the early medieval period. Later the Swan Hotel provided 300 years of service to horse-drawn coaches. In the late 20th century the M25 motorway was built nearby.
In 1986, the town was joined to the UK motorway system, when the M25 motorway was built to the north. Leatherhead became Junction 9, which has odd non-aligned entry/exit points on the two sides. The town is perhaps most frequently mentioned in the national media as the location of motorway traffic jams and accidents.
The symbol of Leatherhead is a swan holding a sword in its beak. This can be seen on the old Leatherhead coat of arms, and on the Mole Valley coat of arms. The insignia of Leatherhead Football Club includes a swan, as do the logos of the Swan Shopping Centre, Therfield School and the leisure centre.
North Leatherhead or Leatherhead Common is the area north of the Kingston Road Bridge, bordered to the north by Leatherhead Golf Course, Ashtead Common and the M25 motorway and to the south by the railway which forks by the town centre. It includes the town's main secondary school, Therfield School, and part of the Trinity School, as well as the bulk of the town's social housing.
Leatherhead formerly had a number of light manufacturing businesses, such as the Ronson's lighter factory, but in and around the 1980s many closed or moved on. Recent years have seen the emergence of several industrial parks, and the town has attracted many service and headquarters operations, including well known companies.
Leatherhead is served by Leatherhead railway station. Over the years, however, Leatherhead has had four railway stations, two of which were only temporary and survived for about eight years from the railway's first opening in 1859.

Black 5 at Horsley
Steam Dreams charter train from London to Swanage, hauled by a Black 5 steam loco. Seen passing through Horsley station on 5 October 2017.
The modern railway did its very best to get in the way! Leading to some hurried changes of position to grab video as best as could be done. Sounded great, though.
Surrey, England
A drive through the English countryside near Guildford in Surrey. At the end we have a near death experience when my sister nearly goes into the back of a van.
The Scarborough Spa Express & The National Railway Museum at York | 23rd June 2016
LMS Number 48151 know simply as The 8F hauls the Scarborough Spa Express into York Station... and straight out again!
This video has snaps of just a handful of exhibits at the National Railway Museum. It's intended as a taster of what you can expect to see; it doesn't really do the museum itself justice!
The Music? Well the first piece is the 390052Knight theme, then it's One O'Clock Jump by Benny Goodman & His Orchestra. The third piece is a called Deep Henderson by Ambrose & His Orchestra.
