Route Details
Farncombe 07a - History Walk 1 (backup)
The walk is under 3 miles and almost level. Many of the paths are surfaced. Those that are not may be uneven in places. Please leave 3 or 4 minutes at each stop to read the history and look to see what you can see . You may which to leave longer to visit the church at the end of the walk.
There is a second Farncombe History Walk that takes you north to Binscombe. It is rather longer and has some hills so is more of a 'walk'.

A note about references
The material for this history walk has been drawn from many sources. Books and pamphlets, on-line sources, and primary sources kept at Godalming Museum and the Surrey History Centre in Woking have all been used and can provide further reading if you are inspired to find out more. The walk is intended to be a fun introduction to the history of Farncombe, not a 'learned work', and so I have not filled it with lots of references. If you are an author or owner of any of the pictures and feel that I have not properly credited your work, please let me know. I am also pleased to receive corrections or additional information.

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
