More about this scene
This steep curving road is celebrated for its row of 17th-, 18th- and 19th-century cottages in tile-hung brick and stucco, which stagger uphill raised above the roadway in traditional Surrey fashion. The photograph was taken in the same year that John Hutchinson opened his Haslemere Educational Museum.

As a young Laboratory Assistant, when the building and estate was in the hands of the Admiralty Signals Establisment, I knew the house and grounds. The Cricket Pitch area was covered with Nissan huts.
I also remember the large number of exotic trees and plants in the extensive grounds. In season the peaches were large and juicy.
Has the house been demolished?
