West End, Esher

West End is a village in Surrey, UK, a kilometre south-east of Esher(where the 2011 Census population was included).

West End contains a number of houses, a pub, a disused school building and chapel, grouped round a large green with a pond. It links to West End Common, which is part of Esher Commons beside the River Mole.[1] West End is also home to a large garden centre - Garsons Garden Centre. The site also houses a farm shop, a children's playground and a pick your own field, particularly popular in summer. Next to Garsons, there is also a bathtub and swimming pool shop, Poolclean.
