Climbing the hill to Knaphill
From the Woking Borough Council web site: "Knaphill lies in the north west corner of the Borough. Prior to the development of the Goldsworth Park housing estate during the 1970s and 1980s, Knaphill was separated from the built up area of Woking. It is now however, part of the main built up area of the Borough."

Knaphill
Knaphill, as can be seen from the photograph, is indeed on a hill. Until the Goldsworth Park estate was built, the village of Knaphill was separated from Woking town centre but no longer - it is now part of a single urban sprawl. The village centre is decidedly suburban in character and unappealing.

The Bead Box and Threshers, 22 & 24 High Street, Knaphill
The Bead Shop at 22 High Street sells beads and other supplies for making jewellery. It also runs tuition classes in making your own. Threshers at 24 High Street, used to be an off-licence, selling wines, beers and spirits. It was part of a larger group, called First Quench, which collapsed in late 2009. This branch closed just before Christmas 2009. A year and a half later, the property is still empty and to let. Although a few branches of Threshers were sold to other off-licence groups, quite a lot of their former branches are in the same position as this one.

The Anchor (3) - sign, Lower Guildford Road, Knaphill
The sign appears to show an anchor lashed down to the top of a canal narrowboat. The anchor looks much too big for a boat of this type. The nearest canal is the Basingstoke Canal, which runs to the south of Knaphill, and opened in 1794.
