Rockshaw Road, Merstham

The Surrey village of Merstham is a village of about 7,000 people. It lies a few miles to the north of Redhill, twelve miles north of Gatwick Airport and nineteen miles south of Charing Cross on the A23.

Merstham is mentioned in the Domesday Book, and the North Downs Way (together with the supposed course of the Pilgrims' Way) passes through the village.

Although Rockshaw Road was constructed only at the very end of the nineteenth century, the two oldest houses were built around the time of the Spanish Armada. How can this be?
