About
About Leatherhead
Leatherhead is a town in the Mole Valley district of Surrey, England, about 17 mi (27 km) south of Central London. The settlement grew up beside a ford on the River Mole, from which its name is thought to derive.
Leatherhead is a historic market town that gracefully rises over the Mole (river), with architectural treats in its centre and fine food. Cinema/theatre beats nearby Dorking.
