Public Gardens

 

 The Walled Garden is open seven days a week from 7.30am - 8.30pm in the summer months. The historical garden in Sunbury Park was built in the early part of the 18th Century. Spelthorne Council embarked on a restoration project of the two-acre garden, starting in the Autumn of 1985.

 

Since its establishment, the garden has become a popular venue for exhibitions and band concerts. It is also used for the annual Sunbury Fayre in early July. Toilets are provided close by and a wheelchair can be borrowed if needed.

THE SURREY HILLS - Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

 

The Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Beauty (AONB), designated in 1958, offers some of the South East England's most beautiful and accessible countryside and the highest point in the South East of England at Leith Hill.  There's an extensive footpath network, open commons, breathtaking views, attractive market towns and villages, and much more.

 

The hills stretch across the chalk North Downs that run from Farnham in the west, above Guildford, Dorking and Reigate, to Oxted in the east.  To the south are the Greensand Hills that include Blackdown and the Devil's Punch Bowl.
