Epsom Cluster

The Epsom Cluster, also referred to as the Horton Estate, was a cluster or group of five large psychiatric hospitals situated on land to the west of Epsom.

The County Council continued to manage them until they were nationalised, becoming part of the National Health Service in 1948.

The cluster was served by a central cemetery on the corner of Hook Road and Horton Lane until 1955[2] and a central waterworks and power station until the arrival of mains services.

As of 2011, much of the estate had been redeveloped for housing, including most of The Manor and Horton sites and all of Long Grove.

NHS psychiatric units remained operational at St. Ebba's, Horton Haven, West Park and the Manor while redundant areas at West Park and St. Ebba's were undergoing redevelopment.
