The parish lay within the Anglo-Saxon administrative division of Tandridge hundred . The earliest reference to Horne by name was in the 12th Century. Horne did not become a parish in its own right until 1705, when the southern part of Bletchingley parish became the parish of Horne. In 1953 parish boundaries were changed with the southern part of Horne becoming the new Parish of Felbridge, whilst parts of Godstone and Tandridge were added.
