Description

The town has a long history. Its ford was probably used by Julius Caesar and was later controlled by the monks of Chertsey Abbey.

By the time of Domesday Book there was a church and, soon after, a riverside wharf; while its 14th-century manor house still stands.

In 1540 the building of nearby Oatlands Palace brought royal patronage.

In the 18th century a bridge was built across the Thames and the next century brought the railway and the riverside became a centre for boating.

Walton Studios brought glamour and an impressive roll of famous people.

An enthralling account in a carefully researched text with superb illustrations.
