Chapel of Ease, Westhumble
| In the Surrey volume of The
King's England (Hodder & Stoughton) Arthur Mee
writes of the Chapel that "George Meredith used to
love to send his vistors to see the yews of Druid's Grove
in Norbury Park, and at Westhumble is the little
weatherboarded chapel where his sister-in-law talked to
the navvies on Sunday evenings. This building was once a
barn." "There are ruins of a much older chapel up the lane; that older chapel was probably built in about 1200 for the tenant of Merton Priory." To find the Chapel click on directions. |
