Queen's Drive
View south along Queen's Drive, from the junction with Stokesheath Road (North). These are both private roads, but both are also a public bridleway Esher 90, which gives access between Prince's Coverts and Oxshott Heath without the need to negotiate the busy Fairoak Lane/Warren Lane junction.

City Corporation Coal Tax Post, at the junction of Sandy Lane and Copsem Lane
This post stands close to a busy road and - as a consequence - was in grubby condition when photographed.
These posts date from the mid 19th century, when the City of London Corporation imposed a tax on coal (and other goods) entering the metropolitan area. They were placed at points on the boundary of that area - though the locations chosen seem pretty arbitrary.
A similar post is to be found a few hundred yards north, where Copsem Lane reaches the A3 roundabout.
