Runfold is a small village in the borough of Waverley, Surrey, England, lying a short distance from Farnham. It sits on the edge of the open countryside that slopes towards the North Downs and is within easy reach of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so the local landscape is a mix of rolling chalk downland, patches of heath and woodland popular with walkers.
Historically the area grew from farming and small-scale quarrying, and today keeps a rural village feel while also serving a commuter population using Farnham’s rail and road links to Guildford and London. The community is quiet and locally focused, with nearby attractions such as Frensham Common and the wider Surrey countryside shaping much of its cultural and recreational life.
