Primary School, Ash Street, Ash, Surrey
There is a much larger modern school building in playing fields behind, but this old building has been retained. The bay windows under the gables are unusual for a school, and must be a modern addition, but the green ventilators on the roofs are typical.

Azor Place, Ash Street, Ash, Surrey
This is my favourite of the old houses of Ash. The cross-wing on the right was an early 18C addition, dated 1717 in large figures in the brickwork (unfortunately hidden by the hedge in this view), and has an attractive sundial. The houses at the end of the drive on the left were converted from a barn in the 1950s, so it would seem that Azor Place was a farmhouse. Azor was the name of the Saxon holder of the manor in the Domesday Book.

The Greyhound roundabout, Ash, Surrey
This roundabout welcomes drivers to Ash, looking from the west. In the centre are a group of standing stones, presumably commemorating something? The Greyhound is a very old timber-framed building and was the first pub in the village. The greyhound name comes from the coat-of-arms of the Gaynesford family of Poyle Manor, to the south not far away.

Looking north-east in Ash Road
Here in Ash where I work there was a lot of mild weather in the first half of the month; but when half term came, as often happens, there was a lot more wind and rain. However, today it was mild enough for me to walk to the shops without a coat

Crooke's Cottages, Ash Street, Ash, Surrey
The Bricklayer's Arms to the left was a brewery. It has since been demolished to make way for houses. The brewery had a field at the back to grow hops; there is now a school on the site. Crooke's Cottages were built as staff quarters for the hop pickers.
