View down the A30 from the Jolly Farmer roundabout
This view shows the top end of the long drag up the A30, (the Portsmouth Road), from Bagshot. Siting a posting inn, (The Jolly Farmer), at the top of this rise would allow the horses to be refreshed, or replaced. As it is on the main route from London to Portsmouth all the major naval figures, including Admiral, the Lord Nelson, would have alighted to stretch their legs here.

The Basing Stone
This stone is located on the A30 adjacent to the traffic lights at the Jolly Farmer roundabout. The very worn plaque reads "SITE OF BASING STONE AND LEGEND OF THE WHITE HART". The stone, (which replaces an earlier one that was destroyed in the 1950's), marks the parish boundary. The legend of the White Hart, as given by a booklet: Medieval Surrey Heath. 1996 PJ Stevens is :- "Legend says that near the Basingstone (Beausantstone) Richard II was attacked by a wounded stag while hunting. He was apparently saved by a White Hart that came between them. In gratitude the King is said to have caused four hostelries with the sign of the White Hart to be erected in the forest at Bagshot, Chobham, Frimley, and Pirbright."
