The village of Leigh is approximately 3 miles south west of Reigate, in the heart of the Weald, and is another of the Surrey villages that were linked to iron-working. It has in its centre the village green and what must be one of the few remaining village water pumps. Next to it is St. Bartholomew`s Church, built in the 15th century. Most of the dwellings in the village are also quite old - the main one being the rambling mediaeval Priests House. The Plough is a slightly more `modern` 18th century pub in the centre of the village, opposite the pump and church. While just along the road there is the Seven Stars, a pub which evolved from a 15th century barn.
