Esher Common proper, with adjacent Abrook Common and Oxshott Hill, 

 are situated south of Ditton Marsh and to the eastward of Claremont. 

 Collectively they cover a considerable tract of unenclosed heathy land, 

 inclusive, on the Claremont side, of a sandy ridge planted with Fir-trees. 

 The commons are marshy, and drained by the rill above mentioned; there 

 are several swampy pools upon them, of which one has been partially 

 drained. Subsoil, gravel ; in some spots sandy or peaty. 



It is crossed by a road from Esher to Oxshott, and approached from 

 Ditton by Hare Lane. A road from Esher runs also by the side of the 

 park palings. Oxshott Hill is a sandy heath. 



Note. These plantations of Fir-trees and sandy hills, with occasional 

 intervening sandy fields, extend in a south-westerly direction towards 

 Chertsey and Woking, and are a peculiar feature of this part of Surrey.
