AN ENGLISH DIANA OF THE CHASE TAKES HER BORZOIS FOR A MORNING RUN
Full of high spirits as well as beauty and grace, these splendid Russian
Wolfhounds make quite a handful. They are part of a kennel of more than
40 aristocratic Borzois owned by Mr. E.H. Guy, one of England's leading
breeders, at "The Hollies", Ringley Park, Reigate, Surrey.
National Geographic magazine, October 1937. Comment 1

According to the OS maps The Hollies was actually on the eastern side of Ringley Park Road rather than in Ringley Park Avenue, i.e. north of the Reigate Road rather than south. Comment 2

I was wondering if anyone knows if 'The Hollies' is still standing? Mr E. H. Guy was my great grandfather, does anyone know who the women is? I'm trying to find information about my great grandmother Mrs Maud Guy.
many thanks Comment 3

I worked at "The Hollies" on the east side of Ringley Park Road from 1956 - 1958 for Mr. Kenneth Basden Chartered Accountant who owned the property and was his offices and residence, we then moved into offices in Reigate town centre. There were two very large American Redwood trees in the garden. The property no longer stands and has made way for more intensive residential development. During my time there the road had not been made up and was extremely uneven. |
