Footpath near Chasemore Farm Footpath Esher 81/Leatherhead 600 near Chasemore Farm. The true line of the right of way passes through the paddock to the left (which, given the footpath was diverted out of the farm some while ago, suggests a lack of foresight). The stream, on the right, is the borough boundary between Elmbridge and Mole Valley — save that the boundary actually follows the old, meandering course of the stream which would twice have crossed this lower part of the field (this is why the footpath has two numbers).
