The Boundary Commission has made its final recommendations for proposed boundary changes in Surrey. Guildford's electorate is the largest of the county and the review aims to reduce it. Proposed changes would see the relignment of the boundary with South West Surrey in order to bring it in line with the recent adjustment of local government wards. Two wards are currently split between the two constituencies: Bramley, Busbridge and Hascombe, which will be placed entirely in South West Surrey; and Alfold, Cranleigh Rural and Ellens Green which will be placed entirely in Guildford. The net effect is to increase the number of voters in South West Surrey and reduce the number in Guildford. In the United Kingdom, the four Boundary Commissions are responsible for determining the boundaries of House of Commons constituencies. ...

Cranleigh has long been associated with the unprovable title of Englands largest village: this settlement is part of the Waverley district of Surrey, and was until late Victorian times Cranley. The name is popularly believed to come from the large cranes breeding ground there; hence the crane on...

A public review was called, dealing primarily with objections to transferring Bramley to South West Surrey. Many petitioned to argue that the village's links, especially transport, are mainly with Guildford rather than the towns of Godalming and Farnham. The precedent of the previous review was cited, when a proposal to move Bramley out of Guildford and into Mole Valley was rejected after local opposition. However the review felt that this did not justify splitting the ward (something the Boundary Commission seeks to avoid completely) and that the other parts of the ward had strong links to Godalming. Furthermore it cited the point that in the previous review Bramley Parish Council had stated that if it were to be moved it would prefer to be moved to South West Surrey and thus argued that the previous objection was not strong enough. Godalming is a town in the Waverley district of the county of Surrey, England, seven kilometres south of Guildford. ...
