Tilt Green
The Tilt Green was used for May Day celebrations with a Maypole and this custom continued until 1902, when complaints brought it to an end. Gypsies and showmen descended on the Green with "vans of all sorts and kinds with shows, these large steam merry-go-rounds etc.... They brought about 70 horses, which were a great annoyance to those living nearby, besides about a dozen wretched donkeys, quite new last year". Sufficient local opposition developed for an official poster to be printed saying fairs were not to occur on the common land. The Green was also used for cricket matches of a high standard (the Surrey County team played there regularly). Clearly there was considerable enthusiasm locally - the proprietor of the adjacent carriage works and the publican at the Running Mare offered £5 to any batsman who could break one of their windows !

Tilt Green
Part of The Tilt conservation area. Historically, the area was used for May Day celebrations, until stopped in 1902 due to complaints from the locals. Apparently the annual influx of gypsies and showmen proved too great an annoyance to the nearby residents. Cricket matches and horse racing also took place here in the past.

Mausoleum, Cobham Cemetery
In a locked off wedge at the edge of the cemetery is a remarkable mausoleum, with no names visible. Across the top is inscribed 'For where two or three are gathered together in my name there am I in the midst of them'. At this end of the compound is a nude statue seen in Image reaching towards this building.
