Albury is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Guildford, Surrey, England, set in the valley of the Tillingbourne and close to the North Downs. The settlement is notable for its rolling parkland and woodland belonging to Albury Park, a historic estate whose grounds and lakes give the area a distinctly rural, landscaped character despite its proximity to larger towns.
Locally there is a mix of historic buildings, a parish church and a largely rural economy of farms, equestrian activity and small businesses, while many residents commute to Guildford or London. It’s popular with walkers and people seeking countryside tranquillity, and the tight-knit village community stages occasional events around the estate and village hall, reflecting both its agricultural roots and its role within the affluent Surrey commuter belt.
