HEATHSIDE, MAYBURY HILL, & MOUNT HERMON
The boundaries of what I think of as Maybury Hill, Heathside and Mount Hermon may not be the same as your interpretation, and any local authority or ecclesiastical boundaries may well have changed over time, so if you cannot find what you are looking for in this section, it may be in a neighbouring area or perhaps one of the more general sections.
For Instance I have included in this area all of the land south of the main London to Portsmouth line from the edge of the Bansbury Estate and Old Hill (currently the edge of the 'urban area'), down to the north-bank of the Hoe Stream and along to the ancient boundary with Pyrford. I have, however, included the whole of Woking Park (even the Leisure Centre on the south-bank of the Hoe Stream), as well as the Maybury Estate and roads off East Hill/Sandy Lane that would originally have been part of Pyrford.
I have tried to divide the archive into logical sections to make finding things easier, but this is not a comprehensive list of items in my archive, just an indication of some of the pre-2000 items I hold, so if you cannot find what you are looking for please ask.
Not everything has been scanned, but those that have are highlighted in blue on the list, so if you find something listed in white that you are interested in please let me know and I will try to get it up on this site as soon as possible.
