Egham Hythe Conservation Appraisal 28 August 2019 DESIGNATION REPORT: EGHAM HYTHE CONSERVATION AREA BOUNDARY REVIEW MAY 2019 1.0 | CONSERVATION AREA BOUNDARY REVIEW 1.1 The Egham Hythe Conservation Area boundary has not been reviewed since its original designation in 1970. Best practice prescribes that Conservation Area boundaries are periodically reviewed to ensure that the original reasons for designation are still relevant and evident. It is recognised that boundaries were historically drawn too widely, tightly or illogically, and it may therefore be appropriate to amend them. A review of the boundary, as well as any accompanying guidance and assessments, should generally take place every five years or in response to a notable change, including any changes in policy or legislation. 1.2 Boundary Review has been undertaken concurrently with the review and updating of the Egham Hythe Conservation Area Appraisal and should be read in conjunction with that report. 1.3 The proposed amendments to the boundary as part of this 2019 review are listed below along with justification: A Inclusion of the triangular-shaped area of the River Thames adjacent to Staines Bridge Justification: To bring the Conservation Area boundary in line with the Borough boundary. This area is currently located within the Staines Conservation Area in the Borough of Spelthorne as historically this area was within the Parish of Staines. However, today this area is within the Borough of Runnymede and therefore should be within a Conservation Area under the jurisdiction of that Council. B Inclusion of the Grade II listed Staines Bridge Justification: The Bridge is currently designated as part of Staines Conservation Area in the Borough of Spelthorne. However, the southern half of the Bridge is within the Borough of Runnymede and therefore should be within a Conservation Area under the jurisdiction of that Council. Its proposed inclusion within the Egham Hythe Conservation Area is to recognise the contribution this structure makes to the historic development and character of the Conservation Area. Although historically, the bridge across the river to Staines was further south, the current bridge demonstrates the important connection between Staines and Egham Hythe. C Rationalisation of the boundary at Chertsey Lane / Staines Bridge approach roundabout Justification: To align the Conservation Area boundary with the edge of the public realm. D Exclusion of Nos. 1, 2 and 2a Chertsey Lane Justification: These buildings have no heritage interest and do not reflect strongly enough the character of the Conservation Area. E Exclusion of the garage range associated with Nos. 1-12 The Fernery Justification: These buildings have no heritage interest and do not reflect the character of the Conservation Area. F Rationalisation of the boundary to rear of Montreaux House and The Fernery garages Justification: To align the Conservation Area boundary with property boundaries.

  • 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.
