Map of the UK

Tilford is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Waverley, Surrey, England, best known for its picture‑postcard triangular green where the two branches of the River Wey meet. The village sits on the edge of the Surrey Hills AONB and is close to heathland such as Frensham Common, making it popular with walkers and riders and prized for its riverine meadows, timber‑framed cottages and quiet lanes.

Historically rural, Tilford today combines a strong local community life - village events on the green, clubs and a village hall - with a largely residential character and small‑scale agriculture and equestrian activity. Many residents commute to nearby centres such as Guildford or London, while visitors come for riverside walks, local heritage and the sense of an unspoilt Surrey village.
