About

Western Commons ward encompasses the westernmost residential and rural outskirts of the Waverley borough. The area is characterised by low-density housing, including estates and detached homes, set among significant tracts of woodland and open space. It contains the villages of Tilford and Rushmoor, which are separated by the River Wey and its surrounding heathland.

A notable feature is the presence of the Bourne, a seasonal winterbourne stream that flows through the sandy soil. The ward includes large areas of the Hankley and Thursley Commons, which are designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest for their lowland heath habitats. This landscape creates a distinct boundary between the borough's settlements and the open countryside of the Surrey Hills.
