Tandridge District Council is holding a consultation on the naming of the Lingfield and Crowhurst ward.
The Council is required to hear residents’ views before changing the ward name to Lingfield, Crowhurst and Tandridge. A boundary change was approved prior to the local elections in May meaning the parish of Tandridge is now in the Lingfield and Crowhurst ward and no longer part of Oxted North and Tandridge.
The consultation is open until the 4th November – survey.zohopublic.eu/zs/pfBP6v
