Ash Museum
Heritage Open Day: Ash Museum is small and friendly, housed in a former chapel which is Grade II listed and has some beautiful stained glass windows. The Ash Cemetery Chapel is 25 feet long and 14 feet wide and built of Bath Stone. It has a high pitched tiled roof and large wooden south doorway. The builders were Messrs Tompsett and Kingham of Farnham. Their tender was £540, and building work was completed early in 1889.
All the remarkable windows in the Cemetery Chapel were gifts of local benefactor Henry Morris Chester of Poyle Park, in Tongham. The window in the east wall is a memorial to the men of Ash, Wyke and Normandy who died in the Great War.
