Church mostly rebuilt in the mid 19th Century from local stone and with a mainly chalk interior

The first mention of a church at Hambledon is in 1291, but St Peter’s was almost entirely rebuilt in 1846. Set in beautiful countryside and a stone’s throw from the Greensand Way, this Grade II listed church is built of Bargate stone, with ashlar dressings and Welsh slate roof and a mostly chalk interior. In the churchyard there are two immense and ancient yews, the larger of which measures 30ft in circumference and is hollow.
Across the footpath is a disused lime kiln, a reminder of Surrey’s past brickmaking industry
