About this deal

A farmhouse was built that became an inn and coach house in the 18 th c. (The Bell Inn is now Grade II listed. The first post offices were the Bell in East Molesey and the Royal Oak in West Molesey). Julius Vogel (1835–1899), Prime Minister of New Zealand, resident in East Molesey in his final years Molesey has three Scout groups which all belong to Esher District. 1st Molesey is a Royal Navy-recognised Sea Scout group whilst 2nd and 3rd Molesey are both Land Scout Groups. All groups have sections from Beavers right through to Explorers. The groups take part in a wide variety of activities and events throughout the year at various locations.

Before 1968 the whole area including expensive areas such as East Molesey flooded badly on a regular basis as they are in part located on the former flood plains of the Thames and the Mole. Even today localised flooding and standing water can be quite common in times of heavy rain as the area is very low lying and flat. Molesey can be the subject of flood warnings that affect the Thames Valley. The Moleseys benefited from social and public health improvements in the late Victorian era including gas for homes and street lighting (1860s), a volunteer fire brigade (1872), water and sewage (1874, 1894), a library committee (1880), the first Molesey hospital in Manor Road (1890), the telephone (1900), a police station (1900) and electricity for homes (1904).

Molesey has many traditional pubs and restaurants, though several public houses have closed in recent years to become apartment buildings.

Molesey's modern bars are composed of Signature Cafe Lounge and Bar, the Square Olive and the Prince of Wales in East Molesey. The club does not currently have any sponsors. Previously it has been sponsored by a Building Society and the International Sports Promotion Society. The club has also received sponsorship from Sport England and Elmbridge Borough Council and other organisations and public bodies in the past. There were two murders in West Molesey in 2016–2017.
