Leafy county just south of London where many City bankers and aging rock stars live. Some of the county got swallowed up by Greater London in the 60s, including the town of Kingston which is still the administrative centre.

Major towns in Surrey include Guildford, Woking, Staines, Dorking and Reigate and it has a population of just over a million.

Other interesting places in Surrey are Hampton Court, Runnymede (where the Magna Carta was signed) and the Epsom racecourse (where the Derby is held).

It is also apparently the greenest county in England.

Also has a successful county cricket side.
