HORSLEY, EAST and WEST, (Surrey) bet. Leatherhead and Guilford, are about 1 m. asunder. In E. Horsley there was a priory. W. Horsley was formerly the estate of the Lds. Berners; but in the R. of James I. it was the manor and seat of Carew, the son of Sir Walter Raleigh. It afterwards passed to Ld. Montacute of Cowdrey, who mortgaged it to John Evelyn, Esq; and sold it outright to Mr. Carew, of whose descendants it was bought by Sir Edw. Nicholas, secretary of state, whose grandson did lately, if he does not still, enjoy it.
