Farnham
Farnham is the largest town within the borough of Waverley with smaller villages of Runfold, Frensham and Wrecclesham within close proximity. Farnham falls within Surrey with Badshot Lea and Weybourne on the Aldershot side of the town.
It is a town of significant historic interest with many Georgian houses and old buildings including Farnham Castle, The Maltings and nearby Waverley Abbey. It is located midway between Winchester and London reportedly the reason for the position of its Castle, which was built as a stopover for the Bishop of Winchester en route to London back in the 11th Century.
The main thoroughfare running from West Street, through the Borough and on to East Street is home to many shops and independent retailers, amongst them Elphicks and Pullingers, some of the towns’ oldest surviving businesses. Farnham also offers a vast selection of restaurants, cafes and bars. As a market town it continues with tradition and has a monthly farmers market held in Central carpark, and a variety of arts and craft markets at the Maltings. The town also offers a Waitrose and central Sainsburys and a larger Superstore on the outskirts.
Farnham has a strong association with the arts and is home to the University of the Creative Arts, formerly known as Farnham School of Art as far back as 1866. It is also known for its outstanding schools, both state and independent, in particular South Farnham School, Heath End, Weydon Secondary School, Frensham Heights, Edgeborough and Barfield and local sixth form college.
Within walking distance of the town centre there are several parks, Farnham Park making up the grounds of the Castle and Gostrey Meadows, with sports facilities and playgrounds making them a popular choice with runners, families and dog walkers. Farnham also benefits from the nearby Frensham Ponds, Bourne Woods and Alice Holt forest. For other keen sports enthusiasts there is a central Leisure centre, an adult only Nuffield Health Fitness & Wellbeing Gym plus a recently developed David Lloyd gym situated on the outskirts of the town and next to Farnham Rugby Club.
It’s fantastic road and rail networks made Farnham an early example of a commuter town, allowing life in the countryside while remaining accessible to London. With rail links to London Waterloo and access to the M3, M25 and A325 also known as the Blackwater Valley road, Farnham remains a popular choice with commuters and families.
