About

Ash Wharf is a modern residential quarter situated along the River Wey, characterised by its contemporary apartment buildings and converted warehouses. The area functions primarily as a living space, with a focus on private balconies and waterside walks. Its architecture reflects a blend of new construction and adaptive reuse of older industrial structures, creating a distinct streetscape defined by brick and glass.

The river is central to the area's layout, with pathways following its course and providing views of working boat locks. A specific feature is the presence of historic timber barges, often moored along the wharf, connecting the present development to the site's past as a commercial timber yard. The atmosphere is generally quiet, geared towards residents rather than visitors, with minimal commercial activity beyond a few local amenities.
