Epsom was a tiny rural village, before the discovery, in about 1618, that the water was rich in ‘Epsom Salts’! A well was established on the common and Epsom Spa began. The Civil War disrupted growth but it was given a boost by the restoration of Charles II in 1660. At the time visitors came for entertainment as well as their health. “ ... essential reading for anyone interested in Epsom’s history.” Nonsuch Antiquarian Society
