If you are interested in local history, having a good read or just looking at the 200 colour photographs, this book is good value. Written by local Ashtead people, it charts one woman's inspired ambition to create a wildlife corridor in Ashtead between Ashtead Common and Leatherhead.

Started in 2011 it recounts how she enthused local people to turn her vision into a reality. It tells of her generous personal support to place her private land under Fields in Trust so it can never be built upon.

It will be a great present for anyone of any age. To buy your copy visit
