The Old Fire Station was constructed in 1833 as Cobham's first purpose-built school for the village children. It became the Fire Engine House around the turn of the century and remained so for many years. The horses for the early fire appliances doubled as plough horses and worked on the land near Elm Farm. Next to it is the Almshouse, refer to picture Image
