  • HISTORY of FETCHAM CHURCH Draft 23.3.97 J Mettam
    pdfMachine by Broadgun Software - a great PDF writer! - a great PDF creator! - http://www.pdfmachine.com http://www.broadgun.com HISTORY OF FETCHAM CHURCH Draft 23.3.97 J Mettam INTRODUCTION The oldest parts of Fetcham Church were built about 1,000 years ago. At that time The Street extended southward between the church and the manor house (where Fetcham Park House now stands) to join the path over the Downs to West Humble. The Street also continued north, bearing right past where Barracks Farm now is, to ford the Mole on the way to Kingston. The Street was crossed by the Harroway, an ancient route which came into existence in BC600-300 from North Kent to the tin mining areas of Cornwall. The Harroway followed the spring line of the Lower Road in the summer and a drier route near the Leatherhead Guildford road in the winter. The Harroway became an important link between the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of Kent and Wessex. Fetcham must have been one of the earliest areas of Anglo-Saxon settlement with 6th Century burial grounds on Hawks Hill and at Watersmeet. The village was clustered in the nearest part of The Street just north of the church and manor house, which is thought to have developed around the site of a Roman villa or farmhouse. The present parish boundaries probably represent the ghost of the Roman estate. The varied soil types were well suited to the mixed communal farming methods of the Anglo Saxons. The main open fields were on calcareous loam on the slopes SE and SW from the Church, which could still be described in 1809 as some of the best soil in Surrey.

Last update: 14-sep-2021 Map: Explorer 146 (Dorking) but the maps in this guide should be sufficient Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Woodland, hills, views In Brief This is a bracing walk with good long stretches that take you far from the starting point to distant parts, but always along good wide paths that make the going easy. This walk is a good winter walk because the views are enhanced. There are no nettles. However, in the wetter months there may be some muddy patches, so boots are a must. Most of this trail is ideal for dogs, with no main road crossings and only one or two small fields of livestock. There are no cafés or pubs en route but Bockett’s Farm, near the start, has an excellent tea room. The walk can be split into two different shorter walks, a northern walk covering Fetcham Downs and Norbury Park (7 km=4½ miles) and a southern walk over Denbies Hillside and Ranmore Common (7½ km=5 miles). The full walk and the northern walk begin at the small free car park in Fetcham close to the Bockett’s Farm roundabout, nearest postcode KT22 9BW , grid ref TQ 150 549.
