Launching during the start of the 2020 pandemic to showcase where we live, Secret Carshalton is Sutton’s largest independent lifestyle website.
If we had a tagline it could well be “you read it here first”. That’s because we find unique and interesting angles on local stories which we share as reels and/or as posts. It’s a compliment to know many have been imitated numerous times, and our photos are copied to commercial websites, on socials, or painted by artists – though sadly, often with no credit.
Secret Carshalton provides original content and is 100% Independent. It’s a website for people that live in and near to Carshalton and relies on your input. It showcases the latest What’s On (it’s FREE to add an event), features a FREE online Spotlight, shares unusual and timeless stories, and suggests interesting local walks. All the trails featured have been personally walked and tested by us – they give you a taste of what to expect on the walk and what to look out for, and provide links to download maps etc.
Our feature series
The majority of photos and research is exclusive to us – and we try and attribute any extra photos we use. There is a very active social media community on instagram, facebook and twitter. If you’re interested in purchasing any of our images please purchase them here.
Carshalton is full of societies, clubs, and pubs, and even boasts a museum, hotel and theatre – a vibrant mix of people. It’s got some great local parks too. Discover the very best of our local groups and businesses on the Spotlight. It’s FREE to add a listing.
Please feel free to comment and ask questions anywhere on this site. And if you enjoyed it why not sign our guestbook.
We also have a range of Carshalton cards and prints available, made in association with lazystuff.com. Find out more.

Images: If you wish to use any Secret Carshalton photos please ask permission, or at the very least add a credit/mention – we watermark our images so you know who they belong to, but this can easily be cropped off. Unfortunately we see our images used a lot without permission or credit – even down to using them for paintings! Remember, just because a photo is in the public space, doesn’t mean it’s there for anyone to use. Thank you.
Content: We can’t stop people being inspired by our content, but if you do use it, please credit secretcarshalton.com. If you are going to quote us word for word, please get in touch and seek permission first.
