Fairlands Farm, north of Guildford, has had its surrounding fields turned into the Roker Park golf course. The farmhouse itself is an interesting example of a medieval building "done up" with a new Georgian front (not visible from this angle) in an 18th century attempt to keep up with the latest fashion. A look round the back reveals the true state of affairs. Taken from the entrance to the golf course looking south-east.
