About

Runnymede is a district in the county of Surrey, on the left bank of the River Thames in South East England. The area includes riverside meadows and small settlements such as Egham and Englefield Green and is crossed by the Thames floodplain. The stretch of meadow at Runnymede is the site where the barons met King John in 1215 and where the sealing of Magna Carta is traditionally placed; that historic field remains part of the council area and shapes the pattern of paths, woodland and public open space along the river bank.

Local points include a small cluster of memorials and monuments set into the riverside landscape: a stone bench commemorating John F. Kennedy, the Magna Carta Memorial, and the Air Forces Memorial positioned on the slope above the river. Egham station provides rail links toward London, and road connections give access to surrounding towns. Land use mixes residential neighbourhoods, parks and business areas, with the river and meadowland defining much of Runnymede’s character.
