context_page_description: Esher is a town in Surrey, England, to the east of the River Mole.
  Esher is an outlying suburb of London near the London-Surrey Border, and with Esher Commons at its southern end, the town marks one limit of the Greater London Built-Up Area. Esher has a linear commercial high street and is otherwise suburban in density, with varying elevations, few high rise buildings and very short sections of dual carriageway within the ward itself. Esher covers a large area, between 13 and 15.4 miles southwest of Charing Cross. In the south it is bounded by the A3 Portsmouth Road which is of urban motorway standard and buffered by the Esher Commons.
  Esher is bisected by the A307, historically the Portsmouth Road, which for approximately 1 mile forms its high street. Esher railway station connects the town to London Waterloo. Sandown Park Racecourse is in the town near the station.
  In the south, Claremont Landscape Garden owned and managed by the National Trust, once belonged, as their British home, to Princess Charlotte and her husband Leopold I of Belgium.
context_section_description: The housing in Esher supports a view of its being presented in some parts of the media as a particularly middle class part of suburbia. Very few places with town status in England have an absolute majority of detached houses.
  The sitcom On the Up starring Dennis Waterman was set in Esher.
