About

Tolworth lies in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, north of the A3 at the Tolworth Junction and centred on Tolworth Broadway. The Broadway is a linear shopping and service strip with independent shops, eateries, estate agents and small offices. A local landmark is Tolworth Tower, a mid-20th‑century office block that sits close to the A3 flyover and is visible from the junction. Tolworth railway station provides regular services into central London, and several bus routes link the Broadway to neighbouring parts of the borough and to the A3 corridor.

Community facilities include primary schools, community centres and sports pitches used by local clubs. There are pockets of open space and playing fields within walking distance of the Broadway, and allotments and small green verges are common on residential streets. Street-level businesses on the Broadway and the cluster of post‑war housing around it form the backbone of local life, with shops and clubs that serve day-to-day needs rather than tourist visiting points.
