Godalming
  Share Location Map  
 
 
Today Godalming has a population slightly in excess of 20,000. The town is situated in some of the finest countryside in southern England in the county of Surrey.

Godalming is midway between London and the south coast and both are easy to reach by public and private transport; the two international airports of London Heathrow and London Gatwick are both within one hour’s drive of the town.

This location has played a major role in Godalming’s development since it was first recorded in the will of King Alfred the Great of Wessex in AD899; its narrow attractive streets, lined with many ancient and historic buildings, lie alongside the River Wey, and the town centre has been enhanced for pedestrian use.

Godalming is a town with many famous sons and daughters and in 1881 became the first town in the world to have electric public street lighting.
