Gatton remains a settlement, the question surely is if Gatton meets separate WP:Notability in accordance with WP:UKVILLAGES or needs merger?
For keeping rather than merging On first glace Gatton meets the standard definition of an English village: a small community with a church. Its civil parish was it seems abolished, however that is not a requirement to have a settlement, nor a village, for example Burpham, Surrey, or in terms of scale: Crowhurst, Surrey. Unfortunately whoever designed the postcode map, see [1] and type RH1 then RH2, split the ecclesiastical parish to put the outcrop around Battlebridge Lane and the very lowest portion of Gatton Park, East Lodge Farm and the Serpentine lake into Redhill rather than Reigate, so while almost all homes are in the RH2 Reigate post-town choosing whether to merge with Redhill (RH1) or Reigate (RH2) is a little bit Controversial.
For merging A tongue of the parish ran southwards, south of Merstham to the boundary of Nutfield [1], but was added to Merstham in 1899.
All that remains is shown by the church. i.e. Gatton's Ecclesiastical Parish - Click on Find Us for the map. Buildings: Lots of central park school/parkkeeper buildings; a cluster of about eight houses part of that old park; Upper Gatton Farm, Crossways Farm, Old Trees and Olde Forge (all High Road); 22-24 Wray Lane; the first three industrial units in Wallis Place. All that remains of the church services is use as a school chapel, with no public worship encouraged and the benefice is dominated by being joined with Merstham that has all the regular services.

Overall I'm tending towards a merger with Reigate under Localities. Please indent your comments to start with a : below. Adam37 ( talk) 18:16, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
GrindtXX's research is watertight and supports a new policy, as there is none, of How to Write about deserted medieval villages. I therefore accept after all keeping. For the additional policy in UK settlements: (I will add this to the Talk page) The first question should be did they have their own ecclesiastical parish (if just a large hamlet then please put under their civil parish/town of today). If they had a parish, then on a case-by-case basis identify whether a new name for a city/town/village is focussed so close to its centre and absorbing almost all of it that it is right to include it as a mention under the area's history and create a Redirect for the medieval parish. If users estimate it is a stand-alone sui juris old village and there is sufficient material to make a Good Article then the Deserted Village can have its own article. (E.g. Gatton) The category Deserted medieval villages in England should begin to group together these; well found. Adam37 ( talk) 12:34, 10 November 2012 (UTC)
