Looking for people who knew my Grandparents.Percy Hodgson owned a Butchers shop at the top of Brockham Lane on corner of main road.House called South Down,now a restuarant.Edith was Grandmother,my Mum was Muriel,also Uncle Ralph.

Mum was married in Brockham church 1940's???Grandad frequented the Barley Mow. I Believe he had his butchers shop built approx 1927,so they were in the area for many years till 50's.Grandad first had Butchers shop in Betchworth on the old Reigate road,but moved to new one because new Reigate rd was being built. Mum attended Brockham school,but was always up Box Hill. Mum knew  the Chittys butchers.

Photos are Hodgsons and Bretts and Rixons in garden of butchers shop.They were very sociable family.

Would love to hear from anyone who knew of them....Thank You...email, Jenny@gardenofeden9.fsnet.co.uk

Are you interested in the history of Brockham and have a few hours to spare? Would you like to contribute to your community?

We are going to expand the history section of this website and need new volunteers with a few hours to spare to help us research the history of our village, plus collate the information, photographs and documents we already have.

You will be part of an enthusiastic team who work together to produce www.brockham.org - our Parish Council's official website, which has growing visitor figures month-on-month. This would be a very interesting pastime for those involved - so don't delay! Please contact us for a chat or for more information.

If you are interested please contact us on editors@brockham.org or on 854917

Thank you.

There is a demand for more Rainbow, Brownie and Guide Units in the area so we are looking for more leaders and helpers.  If you can help in any way please come forward so that your children and other children will benefit.  Please call or email me.

Are you in need, hardship or distress?

You may have heard of the Sidney Michael Poland Trust and you may know that it owns and manages ten units for elderly people at Poland House in Kiln Lane. But did you know that the Trust also manages a fund specifically for residents of Brockham who are in need, hardship or distress? We do not have unlimited funds, but in these difficult economic times, we may be able to help people who are struggling to cope. For example, we might be able to replace a broken washing machine or perhaps fund a training course to help with someone's job prospects. If you would like more information please call Lesley Cruickshank on 843531.
