Godalming Binscombe & Charterhouse sits on the northern edge of Godalming in the borough of Waverley, within Surrey, England. The ward mixes suburban housing with a small industrial and business estate around Binscombe, the wooded slopes and open fields that lead into the Surrey Hills AONB, and the historic precincts of Charterhouse centred on Charterhouse School.
It has a commuter feel thanks to good rail links from Godalming station, while local life is shaped by independent shops, light industry and active community groups; pockets of green space along the River Wey and nearby footpaths make it popular with walkers, and the presence of the school and Victorian-era development gives the area a distinctive historic character.
