The Greville Primary School
The Greville Primary School, Stonny Croft, on the Greville housing estate was opened in January 1958.
It is thought to have been named after Colonel Fulk Greville Howard.
Originally Fulk Greville Upton he married Mary Howard in 1807 and took her surname.
Both he and his wife, Mary, owned almost all the land in Ashtead and were strong supporters of St Giles' Church.
After his death in 1846 Mary continued to support many local projects including the founding of the Church School (now St Giles' School) in 1852.
In Hatton Garden, London there is a Greville Street.
This is named after the poet Fulke Greville, 1st Lord Brooke, 1554-1628,

These are merely mentioned in reference as there is not thought to be any connection with the school.
