Taxis in
Rowledge.

Rowledge is a working commuter village of around 1,600 people with a real centre: a butcher, a convenience store and post office, a café and a garage. Its oddity is the county line running straight through it, with the church and the primary school in Hampshire while most of the houses are in Surrey, so a single short taxi fare can cross the county line.

Local knowledge

Getting around
Rowledge.

Rowledge sits right on the edge of Alice Holt Forest, which shapes a lot of its visitor traffic, and straddles the Surrey and Hampshire border in a way that catches people out. The bulk of the village is in Waverley in Surrey, while St James' Church and Rowledge Primary School are on the Hampshire side.

Door to door, and the local landmarks

Every journey starts at your own door, so nobody has to walk to a meeting point. These are simply the places people name when they book, and the landmarks drivers navigate by. The Hare and Hounds on The Square is the landmark people give, along with the village hall and the recreation ground, home of Rowledge Cricket Club. St James' Church of 1869 and Rowledge Primary sit just over the county line. Alice Holt Forest is immediately south-west and Birdworld to the west.

What drivers watch for

Bus cover here is thin and weekday-only, which makes the evening return the staple fare. Alice Holt is a major day-visitor site and its car parks fill at weekends and in the school holidays, so groups heading there are usually better off booking both legs rather than driving in and hoping.

Questions

Before
you book.

What people usually ask about local journeys from Rowledge.

Can you take us to Alice Holt Forest or Birdworld?

Yes, both are on the village doorstep. The Forestry England car parks at Alice Holt fill at weekends, so being dropped off and collected saves circling for a space.

Is there a bus from Rowledge in the evening?

Not really. The daytime service to Farnham and Aldershot runs on weekdays only and roughly hourly, so evenings and Sundays are effectively taxi-only here.

How far is Rowledge from Farnham station?

About three miles north-east, so allow ten minutes via Wrecclesham. Farnham is the nearest station by a clear margin.

Which pub do you pick up from in Rowledge?

The Hare and Hounds on The Square, which is now the village's only pub. The Cherry Tree closed in 2018 and was converted to housing, so sat navs sometimes still point at it.
