I rode my bike up Trevereux Hill to the little shop on Post Office Row (think possibly after Joyce had gone although I’m sure it was still called Joyce’s)… Before that was the post office and shop, there was an actual post office on the corner (main picture).

We love this amazing photo of Limpsfield High Street pre-dating cars! They didn’t even drive on the left then ;)
Got any good Flashback Limpsfield photos? Please scan (jpg) and email to hello@limpsfieldsurrey.com with a brief description and date if you have one. Any era goes, as long as it’s in Limpsfield and it’s a flashback!
Now you’ll find Rodney House and Rodney Cottage, but just off the high street before Pebble Hill (and opposite Sylvan close) used to stand the Rodney Inn / Lord Rodney pub. It started life as the Coach & Horses and changed names back and forth until the 20th century when it ended up as the Lord Rodney.
It lost its license in the 1920s and is now Rodney House. For the full history, click here for Wasfu Man’s blog entry on Limpsfield pubs.
Look at this quiet leafy lane. Not really that long ago, and actually not really that much has changed except for fencing and the lack of parked cars ;)
Recognise this junction? Now the Limpsfield High Street/Pebble Hill/Wolfs Row traffic lights, it used to be the site of The Plumbers Arms.
Got old Limpsfield photos? Send them in ;) People ones are good too…
