Farncombe

FARNCOMBE is the poor man’s Godalming (see below), of which it is now a suburb. It does have its own recognisable centre, graced by the presence opposite the playing field of ten early 17th-century red-brick almshouses, still administered by the Worshipful Company of Carpenters. A four-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house in Farncombe will sell for around £350,000; a Twenties detached three-bedroom house for £300,000; a modern two-bedroom terrace for £220,000 or more.
