Park Corner

Constructed in 1861 this Lovelace building became a butcher’s shop for the Conisbee family, who have been selling meat in East Horsley since 1780. 

This Grade II listed building was constructed in 1861 in the Lovelace style of flint and brick and named ‘Park Corner’ as shown in a diamond of brickwork above the doorway. There is also a distinctive frieze of terracotta tiles with a rose motif and an arched doorway made of polychrome bricks.

The building is owned by local butcher ‘F. Conisbee & Son’ and their shop occupies all of the ground floor whilst the two upper floors comprise a single residential house with entry from the rear garden. 

In the 1780’s William Conisbee started a butcher’s shop in an old cottage in East Horsley at a nearby location. Seven generations later members of the Conisbee family are still selling meat to the village from this locality.
