Farnham is known for a number of things - it the location of an ancient castle owned by the Bishops of Winchester, it's the surname of John Farnham (aka The Voice), and it's the hometown of Jonny Wilkinson (aka The Boot), the much-loved English rugby No. 10 (5/8th).
Much-loved by most - poms revere him in a somewhat disturbing way, Jo wants to put a poster of him on the bedroom wall, whilst Keezee would love him more if he had broken his foot before the RWC quarter finals.
We're happy to report there's no huge posters or statues of the man noticeable around town. But happily, there are plenty of nice old buildings and parks.
St. Jonny's...oops I mean... Andrew's Church in Farnham is very historic (12th century we're told), yet has been renovated internally in a very contemporary style. There's even a playroom to put the kids whilst praying - you could call it a prayroom [boom-kattish].

Pop, Nana & Jo in Castle St., Farnham. Believe it or not, this is the street which leads to the Castle.
Tudor buildings and stuff.
