About Ewell
Where to stay in Ewell
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
Ewell sits 12 miles from central London and two miles from Epsom, so a room here works for anyone who wants Surrey ground at night and the capital within reach in the morning. Epsom is the bigger neighbour. Bourne Hall Museum, St Mary's Church, Ewell and Ewell Castle all stand close together, which makes the old core the part of the town worth booking near.
Nonsuch Palace and the Cuddington medieval settlement sit on the same record as Ewell roadside settlement and Hatch Furlong, which is the archaeological side of the town.
About Ewell
What are the main landmarks in Ewell?
Houses carry the list. Well House, Glyn House, Mulberry House, Spring House and The Old House are all recorded here, and Ewell Castle and Bourne Hall Museum give the town its two larger set pieces. Nonsuch Palace is the outlier.
St Mary's Church, Ewell holds the parish end of the list, with All Saints Church and The Parish Church of St John the Baptist beside it.
What is the history of Ewell?
Ewell sits inside the Epsom and Ewell district of Surrey, and the town's older identity survives in what has been dug and what still stands rather than in a charter. Excavation carries most of it. Ewell roadside settlement, Hatch Furlong and the King William IV site are recorded within the town, and the Cuddington medieval settlement appears in the same entry as Nonsuch Palace and its formal gardens.
Well House and Lower Mill House keep the domestic thread, and Bourne Hall Museum gives the town a museum address alongside the Cockney Museum.
