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. Village, woodland, green fields, forest paths, valleys, views In Brief This walk takes you on paths which you may never have trodden before, even if you know the area west of Dorking well. Yet these paths contain some hidden delights: isolated cottages, tree-lined tracks, hidden woodland paths, a lovely high walk and a gradual descent down a long green valley. This is a gentle walk with no ploughed fields to cross, no livestock and no steep gradients. ? There are some patches of nettles or brambles on this walk, especially in summer when shorts are inadvisable. Considering the time of year this walk was researched, it is relatively dry. In fact the author managed fine without hiking boots. There are seven stiles, all of the “simple” type and only three unavoidable, probably quite manageable by your small-to- medium dog. The walk begins in the village of Westcott , Surrey, postcode RH4 3NW . There is sometimes space around the green and there is always space somewhere on the side roads. There is parking by the church but this is a private space, strictly reserved for churchgoers on Sunday mornings.

    ALBURY HISTORY SOCIETY - alburyhistory.org.uk - SCRIPT – EXPANDED – 16 June 2021 107 The History of Newlands Corner by Trevor Brook, online 17 September 2020.mp3 1 hour 18 minutes, including Ralph Samuel. There is also a set of 190 slides accompanying this talk. In Highways and Byways in Surrey of 1908, Eric Parker wrote: Pewley Hill is dull enough in itself to-day, when the down grass has gone and the bricks are multiplying, but it leads to one of the wildest and oldest and sweetest of all scenes in the county. You must go over Pewley Hill to come to the downs, and the downs between Guildford and Netley, by Newlands Comer, above Albury and Chilworth, are for me the loveliest spot in Surrey. Newlands Corner is famous for its views. The Leith Hill range is across the south-eastern horizon, while in front the rising ground of the sand is backed by woodlands of the Weald, with the Sussex Downs beyond. St. Martha's, crowned by the church, is on the right. Towards the south west there are Hindhead and Blackdown. Sheep grazing is not something you see here nowadays! This postcard from the 1930s claims: The Black Cottage, over 200 years old. The first building to be erected at Newlands Corner…. And this is how it looked in 1976. Ordnance Survey maps from 1873, show woodland to the west, named The Roughs. East of the road was simply fields and farmland. To the north, was Guildford Race Course on Merrow Downs, already marked as disused. Racing at Merrow lost out to Ascot and Epsom, both of which had closer train stations.

MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF THE PARISH COUNCILE HELD AT 7.45pm Present: Cllr Holden (Vice-Chair), Cllr Brierley, Cllr Cracknell, Cllr Edge-McKenna, Cllr Edwards, Cllr Hall, Cllr Mitchem, Borough Cllr Betts, The Parish Clerk and 5 members of the public including Harry Rayner, Chairman of KALC. 1. APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE Cllr Willingham 2. DECLARATION OF INTERESTS None 3. UPDATE FROM BOROUGH COUNCILLOR (to include Local Plan) Cllr Betts resported that there had been some confusion at TMBC regarding representations from Ightham Parish Council. A submission was made by Cllr Chartres on Friday 25th November on behalf of Ightham Parish Council, requesting that the Dark Hill site should be included in the Local Plan. (None of the sites put forward by Ightham Parish Council in 2014 had been included in Phase 1 of the Local Plan). The Parish Council later retracted the submission on the basis that they remained unsighted of any proposals for the site. TMBC have now confirmed that Ightham Parish Council has made no submission. Cllr Betts said that the Dark Hill site fell within Metropolitan Green Belt (MGB) and was in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and that TMBC had no jurisdiction over such sites. The site had been taken out of the Local Plan. There were also many other more suitable sites put forward in the Borough and the Dark Hill site had been excluded from Phase 1 of the Local Plan for these reasons.
