Nestled in the Borough of Elmbridge in Surrey, England, Cobham stands as an impressive village, well positioned 17 miles southwest of London and 10 miles northeast of Guildford along the picturesque River Mole. One of the noteworthy architectural gems gracing Cobham is the venerable 13th century church, a tribute to St Mary Magdalene. The church's chancel, dating back to 1220 and representing the oldest section, showcases the distinctive Early English style of architecture. Within these sacred walls, an impressive assortment of medieval brasses, counted among the finest in England, finds a hallowed home, adding a layer of historical richness to Cobham's tapestry. As visitors traverse this charming village, they are not only greeted by its brilliant close to the city location but also by the enduring echoes of centuries past, embodied in the time honoured St Mary Magdalene church.
