The True Voice of Knaphill

Knaphill's No. 1 Community Website


Welcome to The Knaphillian:
Launched in March 2006 the Knaphill Village Community Website is very much a voluntary initiative that is dedicated to providing an essential on-line amenity to all Knaphill residents and visitors. We are also keen to help preserve Knaphill's identity as a village community and would welcome your contributions at any time. We are always on the look out for articles and photographs for our website. If you can help, please email us at: theknaphillian@yahoo.com

On Wednesday 28 July 2010 The Knaphillian reached the dizzy heights of attracting 50 thousand 'hits' - This is an important milestone for us and we would like to thank you all for your continued support - More on our Wordpress page Here >>>

Around Knaphill

Wildlife preservation in Knaphill: Preserving Knaphill’s identity has always been our primary aim. Part of that goal is all about protecting the environment where we live. It is important that our conservation areas are maintained so that all wildlife can flourish. We should not take for granted the numerous places in and around Knaphill where people can enjoy a feel for the countryside such as Sheets Heath Common, Stafford Lake, Barley Mow Woods, the Basingstoke Canal and of course the Country Park in the old Brookwood Hospital grounds. Please visit our Conservation Area for more about Knaphill's interesting wildlife.

The Knaphillian is a member of the Surrey Wildlife Trust  If you would like to join, the trust are currently looking for new members and volunteers and would welcome your enquiry. You can even choose how much you would like to subscribe each month. 

 

Knaphill Village Show: On Saturday 17 July The Knaphill Residents Association proudly put on its new summer show, the first in the village for years. The event held at Mizens Miniature Railway in Barrs Lane proved to be an excellent afternoon out in the village and a major success for its organisers who should be congratulated for all their hard work in planning the afternoon's events. More images of the show are now available in our Photo Gallery and on our Facebook Group page. Having spoken to senior members of the KRA committee, we are pleased to report that the show is now set to become an annual event for Knaphill in the future - More >>>

The Knaphillian Facebook Group: There was always a chance that adding a Facebook Group to our portfolio could lead to over-saturation. We hesitated for a while, then re-launched the page with nervous trepidation. We needn’t have worried though, as the group has given us an extra dimension that allows all Knaphillians to communicate transparently with eachother from within their own comfort zones. We are also encouraged by the positive comments about Knaphill our members have been posting. You are invited to join our vibrant Facebook Group - Here >>> 

Knaphill Jam: On the  first  Monday of each month, the Knaphill Working Men’s Club plays host  to  the Knaphill Jam. Local musicians converge on the venue and rotate throughout  a two hour set between 8 and 10pm.
