Extract from 'Merrow Residents AQssociation, Memories of Merrow'
Refers to The Old Rectory....not The Rectory! The name was changed to Stoodwell.
May Barnett worked for the Eustace’s as a between maid (cleaning the boots, cleaning the silver etc.) at the Rectory for four years from about 1925, having worked beforehand from 1923 as a between maid at two houses elsewhere in Guildford. As she (May Barnett) told me, the Rectory must have been built for a wealthy Rector, because it had servants’ rooms in the attic (Rectors often had private means in those days as they usually were the youngest sons of well-to-do families). When May Barnett was there (the Rectory) the Eustace’s had a cook, two maids, herself as between maid, a gardener and a gardener's boy and probably a chauffeur. The gardener and the boy lived in the gardener’s cottage in the grounds, the others in the house. Gerry Coates in The Old Rectory
