Woking Local Information

Woking is a civil parish as well as a large town in the London borough of Woking. In the book ‘The Meaning of Liff’ by Douglas Adams, Woking is the word for those frustrating times when you go to your kitchen, but forget why (haven’t we all done that at some time?!). Woking was also where the martians from H.G. Wells’ book ‘War of the Worlds’ landed and Wells lived in Woking.

A sculpture of one of the martians in the Horsell Common, close to the town centre, commemorates this. It also demonstrates the destruction of Woking! Take a trip there in your car rental to take a peep at it. Rick Parfitt, guitarist for Status Quo, was born in Woking and Fernando Alonso, driver for McLaren, lives in Woking.

Woking serves as a community town for the London commuter belt, which means that people live here and commute to work in London from here. Car rentals are one way of getting from Woking to London on your daily trip to work! Indeed, Woking is well serviced by the motorways M25 and M3, as well as the A3, so there’s no getting lost in your car rental.

Woking dates back to 673 AD, and began its life as a settlement for a group of Wessex people. These people followed Wocca, and hence the name.

Woking is made up of several smaller suburbs; however, Old Woking (which is one such suburb) is often considered a separate village, while two sub-towns of Woking, Knaphill and Sheerwater are sometimes considered outer suburbs of Woking.

Horsell Village is a part of Woking, and it is here that the martians landed in ‘War of the Worlds’ – opposite what is now ‘The Sands’ pub on Chertsey Road. Horsell is also home to Horsell Common, one of the last privately owned areas of common land with public access left in England. Take a trip down there in your car rental and spend some time walking in the tranquillity.
