Welcome to "A History of Pirbright Properties", where you can find out about the people, buildings and activities of Pirbright in past years.
This section of the Pirbright Historians website will eventually comprise a history of all properties in Pirbright, with details of their owners, occupants and activities over the years.
For this purpose, we have subdivided Pirbright into 7 major sections (listed on the menu bar above). Each of these sections has been subdivided into 3-6 smaller subsections. We will upload each of these subsections as they are completed. This site will eventually reach the size of a 1,500-page book. So it will take a few years to complete, but we will provide a progress update on this page below.
Completion: 5%. Latest uploads:
Dec 2023: Fox Corner (complete)
Jun 2024: The Manor of Pirbright
Jul 2024: The Halsey Family

We hope you enjoy reading about these and the other things that created the Pirbright of today. Please use the menu above to access the different parts of the site.
