The land on which The Vicarage was built in 1932 is thought to have been owned previously by the Lutyens family.
The first Vicar to live in the house was Revd Gordon French (Frenchy) who stayed until 1959 when Revd Bill Mills came to the village. Bill Mills was succeeded by Revd Ken Mathews in 1968, followed by Revd John Stevens who with his wife, Rosemary, lived there until he retired in 1982 and when the Parish of Thursley became a plurality with Elstead. The house was sold by the Church Commissioners in 1983 to Eddie and Sheila Hawkins who stayed only a few months.
Pat and Hilary Barr lived at The Old Vicarage from 1984 and altered and extended the property
