    Thursley Welcome Pack

    Thursley Welcome Pack Thursley Welcome Pack 1.0 Introduction Welcome to our parish! This document is intended to provide you with a brief introduction to the history and the facilities available in our parish. 2.0 Thursley Parish Thursley has a comparatively small population (approx. 600) resident in one of the larger parishes (8 sq. miles) of the 21 in the Borough of Waverley, South West Surrey. The parish runs south from its border with Elstead Parish to the southern edge of the Devil’s Punch Bowl near Hindhead. Many years ago, the parish boundaries of Thursley extended as far as Haslemere, but now they are curtailed. They run around Thursley Common, including Warren Mere, and cut across to Bowlhead Green almost to Brook, then back past Boundless Farm to the Devil’s Punch Bowl. They then continue round the bowl to Pitch Place, down to Truxford and back on to the common again. Thursley Welcome Pack Thursley has a cricket green, a large recreation ground which allows parking and a play area upgraded in 2015 as a result of community funding. It attracts many visitors who come to see the village and the local commons via the extensive footpath and bridleway network. The Greensand Way runs through the parish. Bowlhead Green also has an attractive green, and is more agricultural in character than Thursley. Pitch Place has Hankley Common to the north, the orchards and fruit farms to the south and tracks that lead to Hindhead Common and beyond. In popular myth the name Thursley is of Scandinavian origin, meaning the “sacred grove of Thor”, the Norse god of thunder.

    3Rd Epsom Scout Group Official History

    3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History 3rd Epsom Scout Group Official History Version 8 Compiled 2018 This history has been compiled from such records such as St. Martin's Church magazine, minutes of Group committees, AGMs, log books and the history of Epsom and Ewell District. Many thanks are owed to David Faulkner who has compiled the majority of the history up to 1992 together with other people associated with the Scout Group, particularly the Collins family, Leslie and Edith Clark, Michael Arthur, Shirley Quemby (nee Moore) and Richard Ascough. We hope you enjoy reading this history and feel that you then know a bit more about the Group as the longest continuous registered Group in Epsom and Ewell. Inevitably there will be omissions and errors, therefore if anyone has any additions or corrections, however small, they would be very much appreciated. Richard Ascough Group Scout Leader Version 8 Page 1 3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History The 1990's This new decade started with so much happening that it is difficult to know where to begin. The programme of the refurbishment and modernisation of the HQ was now in hand and work had already started. The total cost was estimated at £24,000 and towards this the HQ Committee had "saved" about £5,000 (mainly because fundraising had continued very profitably but little work had been carried out while the lease was negotiated); and the Church had generously donated £3,000. Another benefactor now appeared in the Mayor of Epsom & Ewell, Councillor Robert Lewis who although he had no positive connection with the Group (other than that the Mayor's Secretary, Maureen Chartres, was a former parent) adopted St.
