New Inn Pub

A Memory of Send.

In the '50s this is where I would catch the bus to Woking and on the right, to Guildford, where I travelled to school.  My abiding memory is watching the Shire horses being uncoupled from a Barge (to the right rear of the picture) and walked over the bridge and back onto the tow path behind the New Inn, to be re-coupled to the barge. This is because the towpath was on the opposite side of the canal. Horse drawn Barges were still very common then.  The land in front of the pub became the car park.  This has now been moved to the rear.  The door facing you was the entrance to the Off-licence and then the Saloon bar. This is still a beautiful Pub/Restaurant today.
