Holy Trinity, Lyne War Memorial HOLY TRINITY, LYNE WAR MEMORIAL Researched and written by Graham Webster The Holy Trinity church, Lyne, Surrey’s War Memorial takes two forms: a stone cross and a tablet on the church’s west wall. Holy Trinity church, Lyne Surrey War Memorials (© Graham WEBSTER) The inscriptions on the three sides of the plinth of the cross read as follows: In everlasting honour of those who having left all that was dearest to them made the great sacrifice for the sake of righteousness and freedom May they rest in peace” This cross is erected to the glory of God for our victories by sea and land during the Great War 1914 – 1919 In perpetual and glorious memory of the sixteen men of this parish who laid down their lives for their country Their name liveth for evermore The memorial was unveiled on 9 October 1920 by Lt Gen Sir Edward T H HOTTON and dedicated by the Archdeacon of Surrey, Canon A G ROBINSON. It was created by Farmer and Brindley of London, a firm of monumental masons and sculptors, stone importers and architectural modellers, responsible for a number of war memorials, including the Albert Memorial, London and the Waterloo Station Victory Arch.

Between 1 December 1915 and 13 December 1915, 1,070,478 men were attested under the Derby Scheme; this was nearly 48% of the total number of men who had attested up to 15 December 1915.

  • The Douglass Family of Chertsey and Egham, Surrey
    The Douglass family of Chertsey and Egham, Surrey. Our Douglas ancestors were the forebears of Elizabeth Ellen Douglas who was born in 1864. Her father, James Douglas (born 1837), was the fourth successive “James” in the family. It is often assumed that with the name “Douglas” the family must have come from Scotland and this may be true? However the first recorded James in this family was born about 1733 and was living and working in Chertsey, Surrey as a watch and clockmaker between 1769 and 1791. His father was John Douglass, though his origins and birth are not recorded. The surname was, at that time, spelled Douglass. Many of the watches and clocks which came from the workshop of James Douglass, in the late eighteenth century, were evidently very fine timepieces and some are still in existence and available through antique sales today. He appears to have been declared bankrupt in 1791 and he died in 1805 in Chertsey. His wife was Letitia Joyce, who was born about 1733 – the fourth child, of nine, in the family of Joshua Joyce (a baker) and his wife Elizabeth Chitty of Godalming in Surrey. Joshua Joyce was born about 1699 and was the son of another Joshua (born 1664). His christening evidently took place in Godalming, his parents being recorded as Joshua and Mary. The older Joshua is remarkable in genealogical terms as the names of his parents, grandparents and great grandparents are all documented. His wife was Mary Chitty. The Joyce family can be traced back to Henry Joyce who was born around 1560 and was a cardmaker in Godalming.

  • Longcross Studios Drainage & Services, Chertsey
    CASE STUDY Date: 2020 Works: Drainage and Major Services Relocation Sector: Redevelopment Longcross Studios Drainage & Services, Chertsey OVERVIEW: Lawson Group was awarded the title of principal contractor for this prestigious project located near Chertsey, approximately 25 miles west of London. It involved the removal of specific buildings, and a drainage and services package within the site. Set in over 200 acres, the area first started life as a Ministry of Defence site. In its MoD days, the site was run as the Military Vehicles and Engineering Establishment (MVEE), which was a British defence research unit. During the 1960s, the famous ceramic Chobham armour, along with other armoured vehicle designs, was conceived here. In 2006 the site was taken over by Longcross Film Studios. Over the years, numerous buildings, office blocks and workshops ranging in size from 2,000 sq. ft to 13,000 sq. ft were built on the site, all of which have recently been used by various leading production companies. Many blockbuster films such as Thor 2, Fast and Furious 6 and Skyfall have been made at Longcross Studios. This first phase of Longcross studios was approx. 50 acres in size and was referred to as C1 and C2. CHALLENGE: Care would need to be taken as works would continue around live services such as water, electricity, telecoms, and gas. Being an ex-MOD site, there could be a risk of unexploded ordnance (UXOs) buried in the ground. Licensed asbestos was identified in multiple buildings, so this would need removing subject to a Plan of Works for each unit.

  • History of Ottershaw Cricket Club Written and Researched by Richard Bowden
    History of Ottershaw Cricket Club Written and researched by Richard Bowden Although we cannot, at present, say exactly when the village cricket club began, a later reference suggests that it was probably in the middle 1850s. The first season for which match reports survive is 1869 by when the club appears to have been quite well-established. It was, at that time, captained by the younger William Fletcher, son of the founder of Fletcher’s Nurseries which was to expand across much of Ottershaw between the 1880s and 1920s. As the Surrey press pointed out, the club was fortunate to play its home games in the beautiful surroundings of Ottershaw Park, seat of Sir Edward Colebrooke M.P., who may well have been the club’s President at this stage. By the early 1880s however, the club was playing in Botley’s Park and the club’s presidency had passed to the local vicar, the Rev. Baron Hichens. Hichen was to retain the position for an almost unbroken spell of twenty years. William Fletcher had retired and in the last decade of the century his place was taken by his young nephew, Edmund Fletcher. The years immediately before and after the First World War constituted something of a ‘golden age’ for the local village cricket club. In 1907 the elder of the two Otter boys, Robert, later Major, RE Otter, club captain at the time, succeeded Rev. Percy Phillips as President and, in the following year, G.W. ‘Jocky’ Attfield, yard manager at Fletcher Brothers, took over the duties of club secretary and the list of fixtures expanded considerably.
