Hersham is a suburban ward in the borough of Elmbridge, Surrey, England, centred around a traditional village green and a small high street known locally as Hersham Green. It lies close to Walton-on-Thames and Weybridge, offering a mix of residential streets, local shops and pubs alongside light industrial estates, so the area feels both village‑like and pragmatically commuter‑oriented.
Historically a small agricultural settlement, Hersham expanded with Victorian and post‑war suburban growth, leaving pockets of older architecture and community spaces. Local life is animated by sports clubs and community events (the area is associated with the football club Walton & Hersham), while good road and rail links and proximity to the River Thames help keep it closely tied to the wider Surrey economy and to London.
