Ockley is a small rural village in the district of Mole Valley in Surrey, England, tucked into the rolling chalk and greensand countryside of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its name reflects an old clearing among oaks and the settlement retains a quietly historic character - scattered cottages and farmsteads, a parish church and a number of listed buildings speak to centuries of local agricultural life.
The local economy is still rooted in farming and small businesses, complemented by residents who commute to larger towns and London. The lanes, bridleways and nearby commons attract walkers and cyclists, while village life centres on a pub, a village hall and periodic community events, giving Ockley a close-knit countryside feel within easy reach of the wider Mole Valley area.
