Name

This page appears to have the wrong title - it should be 'Horselydown', not 'Horsleydown' - at least according to the book I have. Sam Blacketer 19:12, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Both spellings were used. However, nowadays it's spelt Horsleydown. You may be interested to learn the name originally comes from "whores lie down", because it used to be an area with considerable prostitution. Tris2000 (talk) 15:58, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
