This Surrey village dates from Roman times, and was still only a small settlement on the River Mole when it was recorded by Domesday Book (1086). Road, canal and railway encouraged the development of the three communities: Street Cobham, Church Cobham and Tilt Cobham. Here is the story of a community of wide variety and one of the largest parishes in the county. From royal mistresses to philosophers, stately homes to car manufacture, non-conformity to Utopia – this is Cobham: A History.

DAVID TAYLOR is a lifelong resident of Cobham, actively involved in the local community. A local historian, writer, and speaker, he is author of nine books and numerous booklets and articles, including The Book of Cobham (1982), the first ever published history of Cobham, which is now out of print.
