Ancient fingerpost on the corner of Littleton Road
Before the early 30s road signs were locally made, and this is one of the first signposts for road traffic although the road itself doesn't appear to be as old as that from the buildings.

Spelthorne Lane, Ashford
Spelthorne is the Saxon phrase for "speech thorn tree" where the Elders of the Spelthorne Hundred met to discuss local law. The tree was of great importance. Spelthorne is one of the boroughs within the ancient county of Middlesex. This area is now under Surrey administration. There once stood the Spelthorne Inn just to the left of this photo, so the Lane could have got its name from the pub. Spelthorne Manor House was further along the Staines Road West in Sunbury, where the Spelthorne Grove Estate now stands.
