About Almshouse Common

Almshouse Common breathes a quiet, unassuming life in Surrey's Waverley district. It lies 1.5 km east of Haslemere (from Haslemere: bearing 96°T, OS grid SU 920 326). The land here, a gentle rise of chalk downs, often catches the late afternoon sun, bathing the scattered houses and mature trees in a warm, honeyed light. These ancient pathways, worn smooth by generations of feet and cartwheels, still hint at the agricultural past that shaped Almshouse Common, a past that feels present in the faint scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke. Though no grand monuments mark its presence, the solid, understated architecture of its homes speaks of a settled, enduring character. The air, especially after a spring rain, carries a clean, green fragrance that speaks of the surrounding countryside.
