About Westvale Park

Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is working with Surrey County Council and a consortium of developers to build a new neighbourhood called Westvale Park in Horley.

When complete Westvale Park, will have 1,510 homes, supported by a variety of on-site infrastructure.

At the heart of Westvale will be a neighbourhood centre, which will include a primary school and nursery, community hall and shops.

Primary school and nursery

A new two-form entry primary school and integrated nursery has been built at the heart of the neighbourhood centre.  

The school, known as Westvale Park Primary Academy, was built by Surrey County Council, and was opened by Aurora Academies Trust in September 2020.

Westvale Park Primary Academy has 60 admissions per year and caters for children aged 2-11 years.

Neighbourhood hall

A new neighbourhood hall is currently being built within the neighbourhood centre.

Due for completion in April 2025, the new neighbourhood hall will provide an important venue for community activities where people can come together.

When finished, the building will be owned by Reigate & Banstead Borough Council. The Council wishes the new neighbourhood hall to be run by a third party and is seeking expressions of interest from organisations. Further details on the Expression of interest - neighbourhood hall.

The Council is also looking to let some of the space within the neighbourhood hall to a local General Practitioner, subject to terms being agreed.

Neighbourhood shops

Within the neighbourhood centre, there will be a series of buildings that will include ground floor commercial space to let for retail, café and other uses, as well as 80 flats on the upper stories.  

The construction of the neighbourhood centre shops and flats is being led by Taylor Wimpey and works began in December 2024 with a planned completion in August 2026.

Play areas

A range of children's play areas are being provided in Westvale Park.

All thirteen play areas have been opened; they will be owned and managed by Reigate & Banstead Borough Council.

Riverside Green Chain

Westvale Park will benefit from significant open space that will form part of what is known as the Riverside Green Chain.

The Riverside Green Chain will be an area of open space, that will protect the riverine environment, provide space for informal recreation, and form an important wildlife habitat.

The open space is being completed in phases.

Two phases of the Riverside Green Chain have now been completed and a third phase is due to be completed by June 2025.

Once complete the Riverside Green Chain land will be owned and managed by Reigate & Banstead Borough Council.

Allotments

Two new allotment sites are being provided in Westvale Park.

Works to create the first of the new allotment sites began in November 2024 and will complete in Spring 2025.

On completion the two allotment sites will be owned and managed by Reigate & Banstead Borough Council.
