Church Lane

Church Lane branches right from the top of High St at a 90 degree junction; the cottages that range either side of the narrow lane present a village view that is archetypally English, aided by the houses lining the road, scrupulously maintained today by their owners. As the lane turns left there is the entrance to Folly House named for the prominently visible tower overlooking the village whose grounds in the Edwardian era hosted the Old Folly Tea Rooms. The lane leads on past the east gate to the churchyard and on to the Hambledon village school.
