Fetcham - Social Life

Social Life

Fetcham has the pub The Bell. It had a major refit in late 2004 and again in late 2007 by its new owner the Youngs brewery chain. The Bell is mentioned in The Good Food Guide.

The large Village Hall in The Street is home to several organisations, including Fetcham Village Women's Institute. It was also the venue for several early performances by the influential band John's Children, which included sometime frontman Marc Bolan.

There is also a small reading room that can be hired for private functions, on Cobham Road by the railway, after Cobham Road and The Street combine in the north.

There was a social club, called the Fetcham Sports and Social Club, but this closed in 2001 after the membership dwindled. The building is now used as offices.

1st Fetcham Scout Group, headquartered in Cock Lane, has two Cub Scout packs and two Scout Troops, as well as Beavers and Explorers.

Famous quotes related to social life:

    Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same—hardihood. Give them raw truth.
    John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
