Tilford, The Barley Mow 1923
Photo ref:

More about this scene
Behind the Barley Mow pub in the centre of the picture, the northern and southern branches of the River Wey unite. Just beyond is the famous Tilford Oak, measured by William Cobbett in 1822 and found to be more than thirty feet in girth. Although he described it as the finest tree he had ever seen, 101 years later it is clearly beyond its prime. The cottage next door was, for the last forty years of his life, the home of the renowned cricketer William 'Silver Billy' Beldham, whose exploits made him the greatest player of the Regency and Georgian periods. He died here in 1862 at the age of ninety-six.
