  • 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.

It is not intended for and should not be relied upon by any third party and no responsibility is undertaken to any third party. Job number 243074-00 Ove Arup & Partners Ltd 13 Fitzroy Street London W1T 4BQ United Kingdom www.arup.com Local Area 1 Area (ha) 453.1 Location Plan Strategic Area Strategic Area C lies on the fringes of a much wider area of strategic Green Belt which extends Summary across much of Surrey. Its strategic role in Elmbridge is to prevent the town of Oxshott / Cobham from merging with Ashtead and Leatherhead / Bookham / Fetcham in Mole Valley, though it is also important for preventing encroachment into open countryside. Much of the Area retains an unspoilt and open, rural character, though in some isolated localities ribbon development along roads and the loss of arable farmland to horse paddocks has diminished this character somewhat. At the strategic level, the Strategic Area plays an important role in meeting the fundamental aim of Green Belt policy to prevent urban sprawl by keeping land permanently open. Assessment of the Strategic Area against the relevant NPPF Purposes is as follows: - Purpose 1 – Meets the Purpose moderately by acting as an important barrier to potential sprawl from the Guildford urban area, Ash and Tongham urban area, Dorking, and Leatherhead / Bookham / Fetcham / Ashtead. - Purpose 2 – Meets the Purpose strongly by establishing important gaps between a number of Surrey towns from merging into one another.
