Tilford
Tilford is for the most part a wooded village centred at the point where the two branches of the River Wey merge in Surrey, England, south-east of Farnham. It has half of Charleshill, Elstead in its east, a steep northern outcrop of the Greensand Ridge at Crooksbury Hill on Crooksbury Common in the north and Farnham Common (woodland) Nature Reserve in the west, which has the Rural Life Centre. As the Greensand Ridge in its western section is in two parts, the Greensand Way has a connecting spur here to its main route running east-west to the south.
== History ==
The name "Tilford" appears to identify the Old English name Tila, as Tila's ford" or "Tilla's ford".〔J. E. B. Gover, A. Mawer, F. M. Stenton with A. Bonner ''The Place-names of Surrey'' English Place-Name Society Volume XI Cambridge University Press ISBN 978-0-904889-22-2 p173〕 The two medieval bridges spanning the River Wey are Scheduled Ancient Monuments.〔
〕 Several substantial farm houses date from the 16th century. Tilford House was built in 1727 and its chapel in 1776.〔(Visit Haslemere )〕
In the mid eighteenth century the village was owned by Elizabeth Abney, daughter of Lady Mary Abney; and her detailed local survey map has survived to this day in the British Library.
