Worplesdon Hill lies within the town and borough of Woking, Surrey, England. Woking itself is a historic settlement first recorded in the Domesday Book as Wochinges, with a name likely derived from a Saxon landowner. The earliest evidence of human activity in the area dates back to the Palaeolithic, though the sandy local soils meant it was sparsely populated in 1086. Between the mid‑17th and mid‑19th centuries, new transport links were constructed, including the Wey Navigation, Basingstoke Canal and the London to Southampton railway line. The modern town emerged in the mid‑1860s when the London Necropolis Company began selling surplus land around the railway station for development. Today, Worplesdon Hill is part of this town, offering a connection to both local history and contemporary transport links.
