End of Tenancy Cleaning Chertsey KT16

The first mention of Chertsey comes from the 7th century. Back then, the area was known as Cirotisege which translates to “the island of Cirotis”. In 1086, the name was Certesi and it belonged to Chertsey Abbey. In the 16th century, King Henry VIII dissolved the abbey and the building was demolished. Stone from the building was used to pave the streets. This KT16 area is one of the oldest market towns in the UK. The local Church of England was established in the 12th century. Keith Moon, the drummer of The Who band, is one of the famous people who lived here. English musician Vince Clarke who is known for collaborating with bands like Depeche Mode, Yazoo, and Erasure is another famous resident. Liverpool footballer Harvey Elliot and singer Chesney Hawkes lived here as well.

Chertsey Bridge is one of the landmarks of this South West London area. It is a historic monument. Hardwick Court Farm is another important building. It dates from the 16th century. In 1940, it was severely damaged by bombing. One of the bomb’s craters can still be seen nearby Cockrow Hill. The miniature Great Cockcrow Railway near the farm is a popular place. The west tower of St Peter’s Church was built in the 13th century. Several Grade II listed buildings can be found in the vicinity of the church. Pyrcroft House is one of them.

Chertsey railway station serves this South West London area. The station opened in 1848. The original building is said to be designed by William Tite but, in fact, it is only inspired by his designs. In 1866, the station was moved to the opposite side of the road. The present building is a Grade II construction. The station features in Public Eye TV series. It also housed the Buffet Carr cafe until 2009.
