The Cobham Conservation and Heritage Trust has been working hard over the last year or so to transform the riverside to make it a more pleasant and enjoyable feature of Cobham.
On the 9th of July this was opened by Her Royal Highness Sophie Wessex who spent the afternoon in Cobham, unveiling an information board about the project, visiting the Mill and later attending a tea party on The Tilt.
