Hascombe is a village and civil parish in Surrey, England. It is around southeast of Godalming in the Borough of Waverley. The settlement contains a large cluster of cottages and country estates, St Peter's Church, the village green, a fountain, pond, a central public house and is surrounded by steep wooded hillsides.
==Toponymy== The earliest records of the settlement are from 1241, in which it appears as Hasecumbe and under the modern spelling "Hascombe". Additional variants from the 13th century include Hescumbe (1243), Hascumbe (1255), Hassecumbe (1266) and Escumbe. (). The second part of the name "combe", is generally agreed to derive from the Old English (OE) cumb, meaning a valley. The first element "Has" may come from hese or hæse (OE) meaning "brushwood", or from hægtesse (OE) meaning "witch".
