Like many Surrey towns, Horley’s growth was shaped by the arrival of the railway. The London to Brighton line, built through Surrey in the 1840s, firmly put Horley on the map and laid the foundations for the thriving commuter community it is today.
Transport links continue to define the area. Our own location in Charlwood, on the western edge of the RH6 postcode, is no accident — it’s ideally positioned close to the M23, with easy access to the M25, Sussex, and the South Coast.
And of course, great transport links help drive the local economy too. Gatwick Airport, the area’s largest employer, plays a huge role — and a significant number of our granite and quartz worktop installations are for the homes of Gatwick staff.
