A typical coaching inn which some might refer to as 'olde worlde'. And 'lodgings' can be found for yourself and your coachman.

Close to the Chequers Inn for after the service.

This gatehouse was built by Sir J.V. Shelley after 1847 on the site of an old 'strethouse'. During WWI the park was military camp and the lodge used as a guardroom. The Royal Corps of Signals was formed in Maresfield Park in 1920. Maresfield Park is now a private residential estate.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Formerly a large private estate, the road beyond the gatehouse is still marked as 'private'. Judging from the gatehouse, it must have been an impressive estate in its heyday.

Dist:0.4km<br/>In the last 6 months the hotel has changed names and now owned by Marco Pierre White the celebrity chef. As well as the new signage the external paintwork is now black compared with [[1744093]]. To the left of the doorway a blue plaque tells of its early history. Built in 1734, at a cost of approx £400, by Nathaniel Newnham it began life as a Coaching house.
