Capel, Surrey history
Anstiebury Camp
The site was re-occupied in the Roman period, probably at least a century after it was abandoned. The entrance is mid-way along the eastern side, defined by a wide break in the main rampart. Trenches dug in the southeast, the entrance and the entrance, and a few other investigations in 1972-3 revealed that the front of the main. rampart had been set against and into the edge of the associated ditch and revetted with massive, irregular blocks of sandstone.
Medieval period
Capel in the Middle Ages developed only enough to have a chapel of ease, as a chapelry within the parish of Dorking. The original settlement consisted of approximately thirty farms, most of which still exist today bearing the names of their tenants in the early 14th century.
19th Century
By 1848 there were 989 inhabitants over 5,522 acres (2,235 ha), of which 105 acres (42 ha) were common or waste. The 13th century church was enlarged in 1836, paid by Revd. John Broadwood and was restored in 1858 by architect Henry Woodyer.
Friends Meeting House
In the 17th and 18th centuries Capel was the centre of a thriving Quaker community. It is known that George Fox visited Surrey in 1668 and held a Meeting at Plaistow Farm, Capel, the home of Richard Bax.
