Fun Surrey Facts
- Situation Vacant – Duke
There has only been one Duke of Surrey. In 1397 Thomas Holland was given the title as a reward for arresting his own uncle (!?!), the Earl of Arundel on behalf of King Richard II. Richard was overthrown by Henry IV, and subsequently Holland plotted against Henry in a bid to restore Richard to the throne. The plot failed, Thomas Holland was captured and beheaded. Since then, the title has remained unused. - Armishaws Fun Facts
Good Innings
The first recorded reference of cricket was made in Surrey and dates back to 1550. So, the sport itself has a had a pretty good innings to date. - Dragonslayer
Surrey had a resident dragon that terrorised the folk of West Clandon. A soldier (condemned to death for desertion) pleaded for his life to be spared in exchange for killing the scaly beast. The soldier and his dog duly beat the dragon and saved the locals. Today the story is celebrated in a village mural. - The Golden Farmer
Known for his habit of only stealing gold (never jewels or items that could be identified later), the Golden Farmer was a feared highwayman who made Bagshot ‘the most dangerous place in all England’. William Davies was a respectable innkeeper by day and rogue by night. Tales say he was a ‘Robin Hood’ type character who left coins at houses of the poor. Whether his generosity is true or not, he was certainly a busy man and fathered of 18 children. - Daylight Robbery!
He wasn’t the only ‘footpad’ known to prowl Surrey, in fact the route between London and the South West was a rich hunting ground that attracted dozens of highwaymen (and women) including the famous Dick Turpin. - Rock County
Surrey has been home to many of the UK’s biggest rock stars including; Eric Clapton, Petula Clark John Lennon, Joe Strummer, Ringo Starr, Jimmy Page, Roger Waters, Phil Collins, Brian May, Ronnie Wood and many more. - Peter Pan
Peter pan was created in Surrey. James Matthew Barrie wrote the story while staying at Black Lake Cottage near Farnham. During his stay, Barrie had befriended the Llewelyn Davies family and it is believed he was partly inspired to write the book based on the family’s children, George, Jack, Peter, Michael and
