About

Shalford and Wanborough lie just east of Guildford, centred on the River Wey Navigation. Shalford sits beside the river where the navigation runs through a series of locks and weirs; the former watermill at Shalford stands by the towpath and marks the riverside core. Narrow lanes and short terraces lead down to the riverbank, and the towpath provides an off‑road route into Guildford and along the Wey. Public footpaths from the village cross riparian woodland and meadow, linking to nearby suburban streets and riverbank green spaces.

Wanborough is a short distance further east, set among farmland at the foot of the North Downs. The village has a small cluster of houses, a parish church, a village hall and a playing field, with lanes that run across arable fields and hedgerows. Bridleways and rights of way rise onto chalk downland, and the river corridor draws anglers, small craft and walkers. Local groups use the hall and green for events, and the landscape is shaped by fields, copses and the network of paths that connect the two settlements.
