About Fencing in Wallington
Wallington in Surrey appears in the Domesday Book as Waletone and is thought to have been the site of a Roman station, with many Roman relics uncovered in the area over the years, and its status as the centre of a medieval hundred, an extensive administrative district, points to an importance that had faded by the later Middle Ages. The village later found a more unusual niche as a centre for the production of lavender oil, an industry that continued until around the time of the First World War, before the arrival of the railway in 1847 spurred the growth of housing estates and transformed Wallington into a proper town.
