Effingham ward lies in the northern rural reaches of the Guildford borough, characterised by its expansive green spaces and agricultural land. The area is centred around the historic village of Effingham, with its settlement pattern defined by scattered farms, wooded commons, and large residential properties set within sizeable plots. The local economy has traditional ties to farming and forestry, contributing to a landscape of fields and managed woodlands.
A notable landmark is the combined parish church of St Lawrence and St Mary, a rare example of two medieval churches standing side-by-side within a single churchyard. The ward is bisected by the A246 road, which connects to nearby towns, while the Effingham Junction railway station provides a direct rail link to London. The presence of several private schools and golf courses within its boundaries also shapes local land use and community activity.
