Sources and References

· The list of Scheduled structures maintained by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport. LBI, LBII*and LBII indicate the listed status of the building. LBI refers to buildings of exceptional interest and LBII to buildings of special interest, which warrant every effort being made to preserve them (Some particularly important buildings in LBII are classified as LBII*.) The age of each building estimated by the surveyor at the time the building was surveyed is given immediately after the listing status.

· DBRG the building has been inspected by the Domestic Buildings Research Group (Surrey) and their estimate of age is given.

· AOS the building is included in Surrey County Council's List of Antiquities and Conservation Areas in the Administrative County of Surrey of 1976. The date shown is that which appears in that volume.

· WBC the building appears in Woking Borough Council's Compendium The Heritage of Woking

· The 1841 to 1901 Censuses, the year of Census involved eg 1871 is shown

NB. The named occupier of a building is not necessarily the person living there. Quite often there will be an owner and an occupier and the occupier will sublet the premises to a tenant. This is particularly the case with regard to the Remnant and Tithe Maps
