Church Lane

This photo of a cow in the garden on a cottage in Church Lane shows something of the earlier rural nature of Chessington. The photo dates to the 1950s

St Mary's Church

The long history of St Mary's Church on Church Lane is well documented elsewhere, but this postcard from 1912 is worth reproducing - because it shows one aspect of Chessington which has hardly changed at all through the years - the clothes people wore have changed and the neighbouring trees have grown considerably, but the activity and the building remain the same
