St Peter. Site of.

Treyford · 4.3 miles

Outline of demolished church.

Green Hill

Lythe Hill · 5 miles

The small pine covered hill west of Fernhurst, dwarfed by Marley Heights to the north.

Common Lime

River · 5 miles

Difficult to age as the trunk has fragmented but perhaps is 5/600 yrs old with a 7.46m girth. It could continue hollow for several hundred years. To preserve it, the vertical growth is reduced periodically to minimise risk of failure of the detached trunk

Fridays Hill

Lythe Hill · 5.6 miles

So called, apparently, because people from Fernhurst went over it to market in Haslemere on Fridays!

Beelzebub Oak

River · 5.6 miles

An oak on this spot is shown on maps as far back as 1779, when it marked the parish boundary. The girth of the current oak gives its age as approximately 250 years old, so the one we see today is probably a replacement.

Lower Pond

River · 5.6 miles

In 1603, this area was ‘fowle & deepe of myre. 'Capability' Brown designed the pond to go here, along with the culverts that feed it, during his 4th contract with the 2nd Earl of Egremont (1756–57). It acted as a focal point for views from new park roads
