Counties of Great Britain, Surrey

  • Surrey (Guildford, Croydon, Woking, Sutton, Kingston-on-Thames, Wandsworth, Wimbledon, Brixton)

Surrey is situated to the north of Sussex. The ancient county of Surrey included many parts of what is now south and south-west London. Its main centre is Guildford which is home to the University of Surrey and also has a modern cathedral.

The Surrey History Centre at Woking is the place to find all parish registers and many other records relating to the county of Surrey. The SHC is part of the Surrey History Service and combines the old Record Offices which were at Guildford and Kingston upon Thames.

The ancient county of Surrey contained over 150 parishes but boundaries and responsibilies have altered several times. Some relevant records may be held in London repositories so check on availability before visiting the SHC.
