[6] Epsom and Ewell is the smallest of Surrey's 11 local government districts: it covers approximately 8,425 acres (3,409 ha) in the north of the county, adjacent to Greater London.

Its early growth was encouraged by the discovery of Epsom Salts in 1618 and the founding of The Derby horse race in 1779.

[10] Extensive suburban development followed the opening of railway lines in the mid-19th century, and in the interwar the Worcester Park and Stoneleigh areas were laid out on farmland.

[7][11] Ewell developed from 70 AD around a bend in Stane Street, a major Roman road.

[7] Land in the area was later within the royal demesne or—in the case of the manor of Fitznells, documented as early as 675—owned by Chertsey Abbey.

[14] Cuddington, a medieval village near Ewell with its own church, was demolished in the 16th century to allow Nonsuch Palace and its associated parks to be built.

[15] The parish name is still in use today,[16] and a new church was built in the Worcester Park suburb in the north of the district.

A permanent meeting room was licensed in 1724; after a period of closure it was reopened as an Independent Congregational church in 1805.

[23] There was a Wesleyan Methodist chapel in Epsom from 1847, when a barn was converted for the use of worshippers, and the present town-centre building was completed in 1914.

According to the United Kingdom Census 2011, 75,102 people lived in the borough of Epsom and Ewell.

Similarly, the national percentages of Muslims (5.02%), Sikhs (0.79%) and Jews (0.49%), adherents of religions not mentioned in the Census (0.43%) and people with no religious affiliation (24.74%) were all slightly higher than those reported in the borough.
