Reigate has a population of around 23,000 (2021 census), and a local legend buried, quite literally, beneath its castle mound.
The Cave Behind a Magna Carta Legend
Beneath the mound of the long-vanished Reigate Castle lies a man-made tunnel known as the Barons' Cave. Local legend holds that barons opposed to King John met here before riding to Runnymede to seal Magna Carta in 1215 — a story that's more folklore than proven fact, but one that has stuck to the town for centuries. The castle itself was largely demolished long ago, though its grounds remain a public park.
What that history doesn't leave behind
This town's history doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Reigate shoppers order online anyway
For anything past a corner-shop bag, ordering online is more consistent than relying on what's in stock locally. Reigate shoppers might otherwise travel to Croydon or Guildford for a wider choice, but delivery covers the same ground without the drive.
