Albury Surrey Map

About Albury

Albury rests in the gentle embrace of the Surrey landscape, a quiet corner of England where time seems to flow with a measured grace. It lies 6.0 km east-south-east of Guildford (from Guildford: bearing 113°T, OS grid TQ 050 476), and is situated west of Shere village. The ancient parish church of St. Peter and St. Paul, with its sturdy Saxon tower, stands as a silent witness to centuries of local life, its weathered stones absorbing the soft, diffused light that filters through the surrounding trees. The River Tillingbourne, a slender ribbon of water, threads its way through the parish, its murmuring presence a constant, soothing counterpoint to the rustle of leaves in the woodlands that climb the slopes. The air here often carries the faint, earthy scent of damp soil and decaying leaves, a perfume of the natural world that clings to the very fabric of Albury. Once a place where watermills turned, harnessing the Tillingbourne's modest power, Albury now offers a tranquil retreat, its lanes still echoing with the quiet footsteps of generations.
