Description: EXTRA INFOPHOTO COTTAGES AT OCKLEY: A GLIMPSE OF SURREY AS IT ONCE WAS? SURREY MUST HAVE LOST MUCH OF ITS RURAL CHARACTER BY 1900 AS RAIL LINKS WITH LONDON TURNED MUCH OF THE COUNTY INTO SUBURBS - AND EVEN OUTLYING VILLAGES BECAME CITY DORMITORIES. IT COULD BE SAID THAT UNIVERSAL CAR OWNERSHIP HAS ALMOST COMPLETED THE JOB. THERE CANNOT NOW BE MANY PLACES WHICH OFFER A GLIMPSE OF SURREY AS IT WAS BEFORE CARS AND RAILWAYS ARRIVED BUT THIS - TO ME - SEEMS LIKE ONE OF THEM. THESE COTTAGES STAND ON THE WEST SIDE OF OCKLEY VILLAGE GREEN AT SOME DISTANCE FROM THE NEAREST MADE-UP ROAD. THEY ARE CLEARLY TIMBER-FRAMED (THE FRAMING SOMEWHAT IRREGULAR) WITH A LOT OF BRICK INFILL. THEY COULD WELL BE THE 'TANYARD COTTAGES' REFERRED TO BY NAIRN AND PEVSNER IN THE SURREY VOLUME OF 'THE BUILDINGS OF ENGLAND'. 2010 COPYRIGHT (Photograph and text in Extra Info) STEFAN CZAPSKI PHOTO PAPER THICKNESS NORMAL PHOTOGRAPH THICKNESS NOTES REF NO SKV-1236 PHOTO SIZE SIZE 6 X 4 inches CONDITION: SOME CROPPING OR WHITE LINES TOP/BOTTOM MAY OCCUR DUE TO PHOTO RATIO WATERMARK IF PRESENT ON THE IMAGE WILL NOT APPEAR ON ITEM SENT TO YOU: NOTES This is a print and supply service for an image that is COPYRIGHT (Photograph and text in Extra Info) Stefan Czapski obtained from GEOGRAPH and licensed for reuse under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Generic License Details available here: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/ MANY OTHER ITEMS ARE BEING ADDED TO MY SHOP DAILY
