More about this scene
Byfleet is the last village that the River Wey passes before it joins the Thames at Weybridge. Close by is Brooklands, where there was once a famous motor-racing circuit, an airfield and aviation factories. The site now houses a business park and a retail centre, but Brooklands Museum tells the story of its historic past.

I remember 'Granny Bowey' who lived in this house and I knew her grand-daughter Ann Wharton. We lived in Coachman's Cottage High Road from 1946 to 1961 and I attended the 2 Primary Schools in Byfleet as well as West Byfleet Secondary and Fullbrook Secondary Schools. I have enjoyed reading other people's memories of Byfleet on this website. Happy Days.
My Great Aunt (Grandmothers sister) lived here immediately on the LEFT of this photo at "Ardwyn" in the High Road, opposite the entrance to the Village Hall car park in 1950s/1960s. Her husband was Fred Bowey and one of their daughters was Freda (her children Anne, David) and Nancy. My Aunt was nee Flippence.
