Application has been made to the registration authority, the Surrey County Council, Woodhatch Place, 11 Cockshot Hill, Reigate, Surrey, RH2 8EF under section 13 of the Commons Registration Act 1965 by Nancy El-Shatoury, Surrey County Council Legal Services, 1st Floor, Dakota, De Havilland Drive, Weybridge, Surrey, KT13 0YP for the inclusion in the Register of Town or Village Green of the land described at Annex A below, which it is claimed became a town or village green on 21 December 2009 in substitution for the land described at Annex B below, which, it is claimed, ceased to be a town or village green on that date, under and by virtue of a Compulsory Purchase Order dated 21 December 2009, pursuant to powers contained in the Highways Act 1980, the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and the Acquisition of Land Act 1981.

The application, which includes a plan of both areas, may be inspected at the offices of the Countryside Access Team, Whitebeam Lodge, Merrow Depot, Merrow Lane, Guildford, Surrey, GU4 7BQ and copies of the application and plans may be inspected at the following local authority offices: -

Elmbridge Borough Council, Civic Centre, High Street, Esher, Surrey KT10 9SD

If the registration authority is satisfied that the land described at Annex A below has become a town or village green as claimed, it will so register the land, and such registration will be conclusive evidence of the status of the land as at the date of registration. The land described at Annex B below will then be removed from the register.

Any person wishing to object to the registration of the land as a town or village green or to the removal from the register of the land described at Annex B below should send a written and signed statement of the facts on which he bases his objection to Surrey County Council, Countryside Access Team, Whitebeam Lodge, Merrow Depot, Merrow Lane, Guildford, Surrey, GU4 7BQ so as to arrive not later than 18 November 2024.
