Compare with this photo taken in 1890: http://www.francisfrith.com/epsom/photos/woodcote-green-1890_25997/ and http://www.geograph.org.uk/stuff/frith.php?id=2740812 . The bus stop is of course new, as is all of the development on the north side of Woodcote Green Road, including Epsom General Hospital in the distance. It's unlikely that the bench is in exactly the same position as 120 years ago, but it doesn't seem to have moved much.
