About

Stoughton sits to the north of Guildford's town centre, primarily characterised by residential streets with a mix of housing from different eras. The area is bordered by the A3 to the west and includes the expansive Stoughton Barracks, a significant local landmark with a long military history. Its position provides straightforward access to the town's amenities and major road links while maintaining a quieter, community-focused atmosphere.

The local landscape is shaped by the nearby Hog's Back, a distinct chalk ridge that forms part of the North Downs. One of the area's notable green spaces is Stoke Park, which offers playing fields and woodland walks. The presence of the University of Surrey's Manor Park campus on its eastern edge adds a student population to the community. Daily life here centres around local shops and schools, with the historic Royal Surrey County Hospital also located within its boundaries.
