End of Tenancy Cleaning Chaldon CR3

It is believed that this South West London area was inhabited since the end of the Bronze Age. Flints dating from the Neolithic era have been found at nearby White Hill. The first recording of Chaldon comes from the year 675. It is mentioned as Chalvedune. Saxon lord Dernic was in charge of this area before the Norman conquest. In 1086, Chaldon CR3 is mentioned as Calvedone in the Domesday Book with lord Ralph Fitz Turold as its owner. The name means “hill where calves pasture”. Back in the day, this area was part of the Wallington hundred.

An inscribed stone dating from the 18th or 19th century tells of a pond that was exclusive for human use, not for animals. There was a shortage of water during the warm months and the pond functioned as a reservoir. The Church of Saints Peter and Paul is a grade I listed building that was constructed before 1086. Its most notable feature is the mural that has more than 1100 images. The tower and spire of the church were added in the 19th century. Urban development was slow in Chaldon. There were 197 residents here in 1848 and 266 in 1901. One mention of the area describes it as “a church and six farms”. By 2001, the population grew to 1,800 residents.

In the early 20th century, Viscount Hylton was lord of the manor of Chaldon. In 1911, his buildings in this area received water from the East Surrey Water Company. This CR3 area is sometimes called Little Switzerland because of its climate. It snows heavier here than in other parts of South West London. Chaldon Court is a 14th-century timber-framed construction. It is Grade II listed. Surrey National Golf Course is on White Hill, the highest part of this area. Architect Ernest George Trobridge designed two local arts and crafts style buildings.
