About Fencing in Caterham
Caterham in Surrey grew around a large Victorian army barracks, built in 1877 as a depot for the Foot Guards regiments and notable for incorporating improved sanitation and ventilation in the years after the Crimean War. For much of the Victorian era it was the largest army depot in the country, training generations of Guardsmen until the depot moved to Pirbright in 1960, and the barracks site was eventually redeveloped for housing after closing in 1995. The town itself sits in a valley cutting into the North Downs, some fifteen miles south of central London. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the CR3 postcode area.
