Camberley: Ascot to Guildford railway
The London & South Western Railway opened their Ascot to Aldershot route through here in 1878. This is the view looking towards Image and Camberley station from the Middleton Road bridge. The railway was unusually quiet, even for a Sunday, as trains were largely suspended in the area while Network Rail were trying to repair damage reputedly caused by an attempted cable theft in the Woking area on 9 June 2011.

The Obelisk, Camberley
The brick tower known as The Obelisk is a Folly located East of Camberley. Only about 9.4 metres (30 feet) now remain, but it is estimated that it originally stood about 30.5 metres (100 feet) high. A wooden staircase inside allowed access to the top, and the building was probably divided into several storeys. The brickwork is about 1.5 metres (almost 5 feet) thick in parts. The structure occupies rising ground close to the A30, once the main turnpike road from London to Exeter. It was built in around 1765-70 by John Norris of Hawley Place, about 2 miles away to the west. The surrounding area was then open heathland, and on a clear day it was possible to see for many miles. Camberley itself did not then exist, and the Obelisk was a notable landmark, as early maps show.For a view of the Obelisk from Camberley refer to picture Image

The Obelisk and Knoll
The Camberley Obelisk is situated on 'The Knoll', a hill to the East of the town. Before the town was established the Knoll was probably clear of trees and the Obelisk would have been visible for miles. Currently it is only in winter, when there is little foliage on the trees can the Obelisk be seen from the A30. The area around the Knoll has been landscaped and is now 'Camberley Park'.
