Fetcham St Mary

 

The Parish

The parish of Fetcham lies in central Surrey just to the west of the market town of Leatherhead. The village, much grown in the 20th century by London commuters, lies across the valley of the River Mole from Leatherhead just to the north of the A246 which connects Leatherhead with Guildford. The village sits at about 50 metres above sea-level on a slope which gradually rises to the south to the ridge of the North Downs. Fetcham has grown much over the years and is almost contiguous with Leatherhead and Great Bookham, a sea of suburbia which empties daily through the rail links to the capital. This was not always this way, Fetcham at the dates of this transcript was a rural settlement chiefly engaged in growing arable crops on the sandy soils hereabouts. The parish was, however, physically rather small as its was hemmed in to east and west; the parish was about 1,800 acres and supported almost 400 parishioners (a fraction of today's population). In Domesday times Fetcham was held by three landowners, one the King himself, and supported no fewer than 14 ploughs.


The Church

St Mary's church is sited in a curious enclave within suburban housing. The church is one of the oldest in the district, parts are probably pre-conquest 11th century, showing evidence for the reuse of Roman brickwork. Much is Norman from the mid-12th century with portions appearing to date from all the architectural eras through to the Perpendicular. As is common there was a Victorian restoration but this was sympathetic and left much alone while making the building structurally safe. The church is accessed through a suburban close where it sits at the end of a turning circle enclosed by a low brick wall. The graveyard is extensive with many birch trees and a few yew.
