    Godalming – 6 Quirky Facts

    1. Titanic FM
      Godalming’s most notable son is Jack Phillips, the radio operator onboard the ill-fated Titanic. Jack was on duty on the night of the disaster and it’s claimed he failed to pass on messages from other vessels warning of icebergs in the area.
    2. Historic Houses
      There are 5 conservation areas around the town and Godalming has 350 listed buildings.
    3. Breed Like Rabbits!
      In 1726, Mary Toft pulled off a strange hoax, convincing locals she had given birth to rabbits! The story caused a national sensation and the foremost doctors of the day came to witness the births. She was found out when a porter was discovered smuggling rabbits into her bed chamber.
    4. River River
      ‘Wey’ is Latin for river, therefore the river that runs through Godalming is actually the River River.
    5. On Grid
      Godalming was the first town in the world to have public electricity. Although as no one had smart phones, TVs or kettles we’re not entirely sure what they plugged in!?!
    6. Happy Loaf Day!
      The Lammas Lands are the remains of a medieval field system most likely used for farming. Lammas derives from the Anglo-Saxon, ‘hlaf mass’, or ‘loaf mass’ which was a celebration that probably shared its roots with the Harvest Festival. Lammas Day is August the 1st.
