    Location and divisions - Surrey borders Berkshire, Greater London, Hampshire, Kent, East Sussex and West Sussex. It is divided into 11 boroughs and districts: Elmbridge, Epsom and Ewell, Guildford (borough)Guildford, Mole Valley, Reigate and Banstead, Runnymede (district)Runnymede, Spelthorne, Surrey Heath, Tandridge, Waverley, SurreyWaverley, Woking, SurreyWoking.

    Settlement - Surrey has a population of approximately one million. The traditional county town is Kingston upon Thames, which was lost to the county following the continued expansion of London. The present county town is Guildford, which despite having a cathedral is not a City status in the United Kingdomcity, and which is home to the University of Surrey. Today, the council is still based in Kingston although there are plans to move the offices to Woking.Due to its proximity to London there are a great many commuter villages in Surrey, the population density is high and the residents of the county are more affluent, on average, than other United KingdomUK citizens. Much of Surrey is in the Green Belt (UK)Green Belt and is rolling downland, the county's geology being dominated by the chalk hills of the North Downs. Agriculture not being intensive, there are many Common landcommons and access lands, together with an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways including the North Downs Way, a scenic long-distance path. Accordingly, Surrey provides much in the way of rural leisure activities, with a very large horse population.Surrey contains a good deal of mature woodland (reflected in the official logo of Surrey County Council, a pair of interlocking oak leaves). Among its many notable beauty spots are Box Hill, EnglandBox Hill, Frensham Ponds and Puttenham Common.The highest point in Surrey is Leith Hill near Dorking at 968 ft (295 m) above sea level.

It is not known if he was from a native dynasty or was an appointee of East Saxons or Mercian overlords.Surrey was anciently divided into the 14 hundred (division)hundreds of Blackheath (hundred)Blackheath, Brixton (hundred)Brixton, Copthorne, Effingham (hundred)Effingham, Elmbridge, Farnham (hundred)Farnham, Godalming (hundred)Godalming, Godley (hundred)Godley, Kingston (hundred)Kingston, Reigate (hundred)Reigate, Tandridge, Wallington (hundred)Wallington, Woking (hundred)Woking and Wotton (hundred)Wotton.Until 1889 Surrey contained the present-day London boroughs of London Borough of LambethLambeth, London Borough of SouthwarkSouthwark and London Borough of WandsworthWandsworth. In 1965 the boroughs of Croydon, Royal Borough of Kingston-upon-ThamesKingston, London Borough of MertonMerton, London Borough of Richmond upon ThamesRichmond and London Borough of SuttonSutton were made part of Greater London, and Spelthorne acquired from Middlesex.The 1974 local government reforms caused Gatwick Airport and some surrounding land to be transferred to West Sussex. In the Local Government Act 1972 Horley and Charlwood were also to be transferred, but fierce local protests led to a reversal of this decision. SURREY LOCAL HISTORY TIMELINE Surrey's History starts in 480. 125,000,000 B.C. In 1983, plumber and amateur fossil hunter Bill Walker found a foot-long claw belonging to the 125 million years old flesh-eating dinoasaur at a clay pit in Surrey. 54 B.C. Second Roman attack on Britain. These spur local tribes to regroup. Tribal areas around our area at this time were Regni based around Chichester, Atrebates based around Silchester, Cantii based around Canterbury, Trinobantes based north of the Thames and Belgae based around Winchester. 50 B.C. Commius the Gaul flees to southern Britain from Gaul and his followers settle there. He is King of the Atrebates and Regni until 35 B.C. 35 B.C. Commius the Younger is King of the Atrebates and Regni until 20 B.C. Area covered is roughly modern Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire and Berkshire. 20 B.C. Tincommius is King of the Atrebates and Regni until A.D. 5. 5 Eppillus is King of the Atrebates and Regni until 10, then rules the Cantii (Kent) 10-25. 10 Verica is King of the Atrebates and Regni until A.D. 40, but from 25 there were other rulers in the area, see below. 25 Epaticcus is another ruler until 35. 35 Caratacus is another ruler until 40. 43 Roman invasion led by Aulus Plautius and colonisation of southern Britain begins. He becomes the first Roman governor of Britain (43-47). Claudius was Roman Emperor at the time (41-54). 50 Londonium (London) starts to become an important settlement. Principal Roman Settlements in Surrey, that develop later, are Staines, Merton, Ewell, Dorking and Southwark. Southwark was originally a series of islands in the River Thames. This was the best place to ford or bridge the river and it became an important part of Londinium when the Roman's built the first London Bridge. Two Roman roads, Stane Street and Watling Street, met here, in what is now Borough High Street. 60 Iceni led by Boudica (Boudicea) revolt and burn London amongst other towns. A counter attack defeats her and wipes out the rebels. The south is then garrisoned. 118 The south is by now settled. Towns have markets and industry. Also there are villages and farms. The basilica of London is built. The road system is extensive. 211 Roman Britain split into two provinces Britannia Superior (run from London and included Surrey area) and Britannia Inferior (run from York). Money is now beginning to be spent by the rich on themselves more (e.g. villas) and less on public works. Tiberius Julius Pollienus Auspex is the first Governor of Britannia Superior (211). 296 Britannia split into four provinces: Britannia Prima (South of the Thames, run from Cirencester and included our area), Britannia Secunda (Wales), Maxima Caesariensis (North of the Humber) and Flavia Caesariensis (North of the Thames). By now the spending of money on the villas has reached its peak. 313 Religious freedom granted by the Edict of Milan. 410 Roman's leave Britain. In the later years they may have been members of the small community of Christians in Britain. 'Romanised' Britons try to carry on living in the same style, but the towns and villas were starting a slow decline. Local British Tribes run by Kings, in our area it was mainly Regia (which spread down to Sussex area as well) and there were 3 tribes nearby Atrebatia (Hampshire and Berkshire), Londein (North of the Thames) and Cantia (Kent area). Owen is King of the 'Britains' (410-425). 420 Saxon mercaneries come to Britain to stop raids by Irish/Picts/Germanic tribes. First use of the 'English' Language, but it is called Old English and is very different from Modern English. 440 Saxons start to turn on the local British tribes. Saxon Kent gradually expands westward from 450 to 500 when it is controlling all of Kent (Cantia) and the north-east of Surrey. 449 Hengist is joint King of Kent (449-455). Horsa is joint King of Kent (449-455). 455 Aesc (Oeric)(Oisc) is King of West Kent. (455-488). Hengist is King of East Kent? (455-488). 477 Aella is King of Sussex (South Saxons) (477-514). 480 At around this time Surrey (Suth Rig) is formed (in Old English this meant South Ridge and probably indicates a link with the Middle Saxons (Middlesex). Saxons were forcing the 'Britons' westwards and northwards. 500 Local peace agreements. Saxons control only north and east of Surrey. Saxon Sussex expands west and northwards into Regia. 519 Cerdic is King of Wessex (West Saxons) (519-534). 550 Agreements end, 100 years of war which the Saxons win. Saxon kingdoms of Kent, Wessex, Sussex and Mercia fight to control Surrey which is a sub-kingdom. Surrey northern border is the River Thames. 568 Surrey's northern border is the River Thames and the eastern border with Kent consolidated by a ditch. Saxon Sussex expands into Regia, so by around 570 it controls most of modern Sussex. By 600 it controls the rest (modern West Surrey). Similarly Wessex is expanding into Atrebatia and Essex into Londein. Local Excert from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles - Remember that the year and data may be inaccurate...... This year Ceawlin, and Cutha the brother of Ceawlin, fought with Ethelbert, and pursued him into Kent. And they slew two aldermen at Wimbledon, Oslake and Cnebba. 585 Creoda (Cryda) is King of Mercia (585-593). 587 Sledda is King of Essex (587-604). 600 Saxon kingdoms of Kent (moving westwards), Wessex (fanning out from Hampshire area) and possibly Essex (and later Mercia) fight to control Surrey which is often a sub-kingdom. Vandals moved up the River Thames westwards (River Wandle near Wandsworth showing the influence in their names). Sussex halted its advances by the Weald. There may have been pockets of British settlements around Chertsey and Walton areas for many years. 645 Wessex was under direct Mercian rule 645-648. 661 Mercia wins control of Surrey area from Wessex. 666 Chertsey Abbey formed and the first Roman Catholic Abbot was Erkenwald. 674 First recorded use of "Sudergeona" (Southern district - sub kingdom of Mercia), this later was corrupted to "Surrey". Surrey was described in the Tribal Hidage as a provincia which had a subregulus (sub-king) of its own. Frithuwold is King of Surrey (673-675). (Sub-King under Mercia rule) Wessex tribes in the Surrey area include Aeschingas, Godhelmingas (around Godalming), Tetingas and Woccingas.675 Frithuric is King of Surrey (675?). (Sub-King under Mercia rule?) 685 Surrey is gained by Wessex. 688 Caedwalla King of Wessex converts to Christianity and abdicates. Mercia gains Kent, but Wessex still has control of Surrey. Wessex at some point after this year loses control of Surrey as in King Offa's (of Mercia) reign he has control see 775. 690 Surrey's western border consolidated. 693 King Ine creates West Saxon Law Codes. 705 Surrey transferred from the Roman Catholic Diocese of London to Diocese of Winchester. 722 Surrey is at this time known as Suthrige (in a charter). 775 Local Excert from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles - Remember that the year and data may be inaccurate ......In the days of this same Offa was an alderman, of the name of Brorda, who requested the king for his sake to free his own monastery, called Woking, because he would give it to Medhamsted and St. Peter, and the abbot that then was, whose name was Pusa. Pusa succeeded Beonna; and the king loved him much. And the king freed the monastery of Woking, against king, against bishop, against earl, and against all men so that no man should have any claim there, except St. Peter and the abbot. 802 Ecgberht or Egbert is King of Wessex (802-839), controlled Mercia for a time and as such could claim the title King of England as could his successors at certain times(829-830). 823 Wessex win Surrey and other land back from Mercia.

The heathens now for the first time remained over winter in the Isle of Thanet. The same year came three hundred and fifty ships into the mouth of the Thames; the crew of which went upon land, and stormed Canterbury and London; putting to flight Bertulf, king of the Mercians, with his army; and then marched southward over the Thames into Surrey. Here Ethelwulf and his son Ethelbald, at the head of the West-Saxon army, fought with them at Ockley, and made the greatest slaughter of the heathen army that we have ever heard reported to this present day. There also they obtained the victory. 853 Huda is Alderman of Surrey (???-853) Local Excert from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles - Remember that the year and data may be inaccurate ......The same year also Elchere with the men of Kent, and Huda with the men of Surrey, fought in the Isle of Thanet with the heathen army, and soon obtained the victory; but there were many men slain and drowned on either hand, and both the aldermen killed. 860 Kent and possibly Surrey merges with Wessex. 886 Around this time, the London Bridge was rebuilt. Earl Aethelred as the Governor of London established two defended Boroughs to defend the bridge. London (Lundenburgh) and Southwark (Suthringa Geworc, meaning defensive work of Surrey Men). 894 Local Excert from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles - Remember that the year and data may be inaccurate ......The king had divided his army into two parts; so that they were always half at home, half out; besides the men that should maintain the towns. The army came not all out of their stations more than twice; once, when they first came to land, ere the forces were collected, and again, when they wished to depart from their stations. They had now seized much booty, and would ferry it northward over Thames into Essex, to meet their ships.

And they flew over Thames without any ford, then up by the Colne on an island. 899 Edward I (1st) is King of Wessex (899-924), first King crowned in Kingston.
