As may be surmised The Catherine of Aragon public house is quite close to West Byfleet railway station. In fact one of the first buildings to be constructed near the station when it first opened was a hostelry known as the Byfleet Hotel. The hotel occupied the site where the public house is now. Catherine of Aragon was given the Manor of Byfleet by King Henry VIII in 1533, hence the current day name. The pub's website is here http://thecatherineofaragon.co.uk/
