If you’re out and about Trick or Treating tonight, the best places to go in Limpsfield are Granville Road, Park Road, Detillens Lane, Pastens, Padbrook, Ridlands Lane, Ridlands Rise, Brassey Hill and Stoneleigh Road.
Those houses who want to see Trick or Treaters are usually the ones with Halloween decorations, pumpkin lights and candles in their doorway or windows.
Please respect those who do not wish to have trick or treaters visit their house. They are not necessarily stingy, boring or bad tempered Halloween Humbugs! Some elderly people are genuinely frightened by some Trick or Treaters, particularly the older ones!
Last minute costumes and accessories at Fancier Dress (open until 5pm).

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.
