Englefield Green East lies in the borough of Runnymede in Surrey, England, on the edge of Windsor Great Park and close to the River Thames and the historic Runnymede Meadow. The area includes the Victorian campus of Royal Holloway, notable for its red‑brick Founders Building, and is characterised by tree‑lined streets, common land and pockets of conservation area that give it a village feel despite being part of the London commuter belt.

Socially it is a mixed community of students, long‑standing families and commuters, with a modest local high street and small businesses serving daily needs; nearby Egham station provides regular trains into London, making it popular with professionals. Its green setting and proximity to nationally important historic sites at Runnymede, together with the university presence, give the area a distinctive cultural and historic flavour within suburban Surrey.
