Ottershaw is a village in the Runnymede district of Surrey, England about 20 miles to the south-west of London. It is part of the mixed rural and suburban Foxhills ward and is part of the ecclesiastical parish of Ottershaw first established in 1864 in what was part of the parish of Chertsey.〔(Parish of Ottershaw ) i.e. village status retrieved 2014-10-31〕 Immediately surrounding settlements are West Byfleet, Woodham, Addlestone and Chertsey. A significant landmark is Christ Church. This was the gift of one man, Sir Thomas Edward Colebrooke (1813–1890), who came to live in Ottershaw in 1859. He provided sufficient land from his estate for a church, churchyard and vicarage, paid all the construction costs and endowed the church with £100 per year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Our History )〕 There is a junior school linked to this church.〔(Christ Church Junior School )〕 A boarding school for boys, Ottershaw School, was founded in 1948 in Ottershaw Park; it closed in 1980. The school buildings were converted for residential use. The Ottershaw Society has carried out a comprehensive historical survey of the village that records the current village and its historical background. It is illustrated with over 1,000 photographs of the village as it is now and many historical illustrations from the mid-19th century to the present time, and includes older residents' memories and various other historical written material. ==Leisure== The village has two pubs: the Otter, which has a restaurant, and the Castle in Brox Road; and an Indian restaurant: the Otters Spicy Cottage.
