This RA covers the north and east parts of Nonsuch Ward. This is the most easterly part of the Borough, where Epsom and Ewell leads on to Cheam and Sutton. It is part of the north east boundary of Surrey, where the county abuts Greater London.
The area is totally residential. There are no shops, no offices, and no business premises. There is no railway station, no petrol station, and no police station. There are no pubs, no restaurants and no cafes. This is an area of private houses, with a church, a school and some playing fields.For many years the residents of this residential area have elected Residents’ Association candidates to the Borough Council and to the County Council.
On the edge of the area is Nonsuch Park, from which the RA takes its name. This open area of some 400 acres has been an amenity to be enjoyed by the residents of the Ward, the Borough and the surrounding area since it came into public ownership in 1937. The park is run by a Joint Management Committee which consists of councillors from Epsom and Ewell Borough Council and the London Borough of Sutton, and the park has been financed by those two authorities for the last 70 years.
Nonsuch Park & District Residents’ Association is a non-political body which aims to safeguard and improve the interests of residents within the area, and the amenities of the Borough as a whole. It fully supports the Residents Association ideal of keeping Epsom and Ewell free from national party politics by a system of local people helping local people in the community.
All the councillors for Nonsuch Ward live in the Ward and have done so for more than 20 years. They are local people who have local interests at heart. Through the Residents Associations they are able to keep closely in touch with the needs and views of local people.
