Deepcut is a small village in the borough of Surrey Heath in Surrey, England, lying a short drive from Camberley and Frimley. It sits amid low heathland and pine woodland, popular with walkers and riders, and feels more semi-rural than suburban despite being within commuting distance of London.
The settlement is strongly marked by its military history - the Victorian-era Deepcut Barracks and associated training grounds have shaped the local economy and community, bringing a significant military and ex‑military population. The village came to national attention in the late 20th and early 21st centuries over a series of tragic deaths at the barracks and subsequent public inquiries, and in recent years there has been interest in repurposing parts of the military estate while residents rely on nearby towns for most shops and services.
