  • The "George and Dragon" PH is located just east of the junction of Watts Road, Station Road, and the High Street.

  • This may have been a pub once but I think it is the building occupied by Wine Rack on Streetmap.

  • The diagonal footpath is roughly along the current alignment of what is now Basing Way, coming off Station Road near the Manor House - the field is shown as "Basing Field" on the 1843 Tithe map and apportionment. The railway station and line to Hampton Court is off to to the left of the picture, with just a bit of the 'up' platform just being visible at the bottom of the image. Basingfield Road runs roughly along the track alignment running left to right along which the horse is moving. The A.C. Cars factory is also visible in the village centre.

  • Is this person ploughing? Looks like it but the surrounding area doesnt look like a farming area?

  • Hi SteveAUS,

    The horse and boy makes it look like ploughing, but the ground doesn't appear to be turned over so perhaps the grass is being cut or scoured - on the historical Ordnance Survey mapping this is an open area of ground with the footpath running through, but no labelling to give a park name, field name or to indicate allotments, for example.

    Yours, Katy

  • This could be a railway station platform with vitreous enamel signs attached to the fence. The Midland Railway used diagonal slatted station platform fencing like this.
