East Clandon St Thomas

 

The Parish

The parish of East Clandon lies in western central Surrey about 4 miles east of the town of Guildford. East Clandon is a small and compact village with most properties sitting just north of the A246 road which connect Guildford with Leatherhead. East Clandon is one of a string of villages built at the northern base of the North Downs chalk ridge, the parish being slightly elongated in a north to south direction to take in both the downland of the chalk and the thicker soils of the vale. Farming would have predominated in the local economy, albeit much of the parish was set to managed copses. The parishes proximity to the capital has led to some expansion but not to the degree of its western neighbour which acquired a rail link. East Clandon is drained northwards by a small tributary of the River Wey, the latter making its way to the Thames at Weybridge and thence through the capital to the North Sea. East Clandon is sited at around 90 metres above the sea, land rises steeply to the south onto the North Downs and local heights reach just over 200 metres within a couple of miles. Small by Surrey standards, East Clandon parish covered a little over 1,400 acres supporting a population of just under 300 parishioners. In Domesday times East Clandon was shared between Chertsey Abbey and the ubiquitous Bishop Odo of Bayeux, it was a small place offering 8 ploughs and some woodland.


The Church

St Thomas' church sits at the heart of east Clandon on the northern side of the main lane through the village, The Street. An early church which has been modified over the centuries but retains much that dates to early times. The nave is probably the earliest portion, albeit updated and refreshed in the 15th century, its origins are 12th century and Norman Romanesque in style, these early details are overlaid with a Perpendicular refresh. In the early English style and of the 13th century comes the chancel and northern doorway. The most prominent feature, the shingle-covered bell-turret dates to a very late Victorian restoration of 1900 but is also placed upon an early structure of four large posts. The church sits bend a low flint & brick wall and is rather close to the road within its churchyard making the better views obtainable being from outwith that churchyard. The Street is narrow but sufficiently wide to permit a short stop.
