The Cobham Farmers Market is back again on
Saturday 24th April 2021
in Hollyhedge Road between 9:30am and 2:30pm.
An ideal opportunity to get your fresh produce while being outdoors.
Parking available at the main Pay & Display car park off Downside Bridge Road.
We have had to postpone the Cobham Heritage Litter Picks due to the recent COVID Lockdown restrictions, but we are hopeful that we will be able to restart in July 2021.
The current dates that have been tentatively set but will be subject to the current restrictions in force at the time, are:-
♦ 2 p.m. on Sunday 4 July 2021 on the corner of Downside Common and Downside Road
♦ 2 p.m. on Sunday 1 August 2021 outside No. 44 Furniture Shop on Portsmouth Road.
This is an important community service, and we hope you will be able to take part.
We will confirm these dates nearer the time, so please check our website for the latest information and confirmation that they are going ahead.
As our members will know, we have been very concerned at the progress and indeed the approach of Elmbridge BC to the creation of our local plan. Our concern centres around two fundamental issues:
So working with other like minded residents’ associations and civic groups we have issued the two papers (see below) under the banner of “the Alliance of Elmbridge Residents and Civic Groups (AERC)” we are now challenging all political groups in Elmbridge to support these papers. We shall then tackle all the candidates standing in the May elections to obtain their commitment to vote against a local plan that is based on the Government’s Standard Method. After the May elections we shall be similarly challenging all the councillors to reject the Standard Method for Elmbridge.
To our knowledge this is the first time that a significant number of Resident and Civic Groups have come together united over such an important single issue and we commend this to you for your support.

Cobham Conservation and Heritage Trust is delighted to announce the publication of a new book in the series "A Guide and History" written by our local historian Dr David Taylor.
The ancient parish of Cobham was once made up of three individual settlements or tithings. These were Church Cobham, Downside and Street Cobham. Earlier books in this series have featured Church Cobham and Downside as well as the Tilt, and this book completes the series by providing a brief history of Street Cobham highlighting the history and historic buildings of this important part of Cobham.
Generously illustrated with many old photographs.
Softback with 70 pages - Book size A5
This new book is available now to order through the Cobham Heritage online shop at
and from the Cobham Bookshop.
An ideal gift for Christmas!
