Congratulations to our friends at Hampton Court House School for organising yet another successful Summer Fête.

We spent the latter half of November preparing for the annual Bridge Road East Molesey Christmas Winter Wander.
A great big thank you to Molesey’s Rainbows for painting beautiful Gingerbread Houses for our popular window display. Such talented girls.
Thank you also to Molesey Women’s Institute who successfully sold their famous gingerbread house biscuits outside our office again this year – you know they come from a good home! This year saw a new edition to the stalls, in the form of Hersham Village Market, selling beautiful homemade crafts.
Lastly, a big thank you to SOS!SEN, Bridge Road’s charity this year, for including our office in their choir – debuté performance was at 6pm outside the Albion.

Take a step back in time and enjoy a beautifully restored Grade II listed house with a fascinating historic connection to Hampton Court Palace.
Palace Gate House boasts an intriguing link to Hampton Court Palace dating back to the 1500’s.
By 1640 it was the official residence of Thomas Smithsby, the Under House Keeper of the Palace responsible for managing operations of the Palace in all its aspects. Smithsby lived at the house until he surrendered his office in 1656 to one of Cromwell’s generals after the execution of Charles I. In the late 1600s Jasper English, a court official, gained the lease and upon his death in 1710 his son, Somersett English, was given permission to demolish and rebuild Palace Gate House. Much of the original timber frame of the house was retained and many old timbers were re-positioned in the new house, however by 1734 Somersett English applied to divide his house and was granted permission. The work involved creating a new entrance, replacing windows, creating a hallway and installing a suspended wooden floor. After the death of Somersett English Palace Gate House was leased to various tenants. In the mid 1800s Palace Gate House and the two adjacent buildings were re-amalgamated to lodge the Palace Police who had been recruited to cope with the demanding crowds following the opening of Hampton Court Palace by Queen Victoria to the public. By the turn of the century Palace Gate House was being used as part of a restaurant and tea room yet by the turn of this century the property was once again neglected.
In 2011 the current owners bought the freehold of Palace Gate House and spent a couple of years repairing the building and returning it back to a home.

Given we’re an estate agent, and it’s a Christmas event, we’ve decided on a Christmas Gingerbread House theme for our office. We’ve invited local school children to colour in pictures of gingerbread houses for our back-lit window display, and the Molesey Women’s Institute’s have very kindly offered to bake gingerbread house biscuits which can be purchased from their stall in front of Miles & Bird.
A big thank you for all the local support for the independent / family businesses of Bridge Road.

September 2016:
It’s now almost six months since we opened our doors, and we’ve had a wonderful response from both our clients and new neighbours alike.
“We have had property on our books ranging in price from £265,000 to £3,000,000 (Residential Sales), £1000 PCM to £5,000 PCM (Commercial & Residential Lettings), and our properties have been geographically located from Esher, Chertsey, Shepperton, and Molesey in Surrey through Staines, Twickenham, and Teddington in Middlesex, right up to Putney in South West London. The range and scope has been amazing.
Finally, we’d also like to say a big thank you to the traders at Bridge Road for giving us such a warm welcome and embracing us into the local community. We love working here.” – The Miles & Bird Team
