Key Facts:
- Dorking began life as a small staging post on Stane Street, the Roman Road which linked London to Chichester on the English Channel.
- Dorking is a historic market town at the foot of the North Downs approximately 25 miles (40 km) south of London, in Surrey, England.
- Just north of Dorking the River Mole cuts a steep-sided valley through the North Downs. On the left bank is Denbies Vineyard, the largest vineyard in the UK[2] On the right bank is Box Hill, owned by the National Trust and Britain's first Country Park.
- Dorking appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as the Manor of Dorchinges. It was held by William the Conqueror. Its domesday assets were: one church, 3 mills worth 15s 4d, 16 ploughs, 3 acres (1.2 ha) of meadow, woodland and herbage worth 88 hogs. It rendered £18. Subsequent Lords of the Manor were to include the Dukes of Norfolk, who lived in Dorking until they moved to Arundel. One of them is buried in Dorking churchyard. In the Medieval period, Dorking was a prosperous agricultural and market town, benefitting from its position on the junction of a number of important roads and tracks.
