From 568 the eastern border of Surrey and Kent is agreed and marked by a ditch.
In 705 Surrey was transferred from the Middle Saxon diocese of London to the West Saxon diocese of Winchester.
The new county of Surrey was reduced in size with the loss of areas in the north east bordering the City of London which became part of the new County of London and today form the London Boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark and Wandsworth.
Surrey is bounded on the north by Greater London, Windsor and Maidenhead, and Bracknell Forest; on the east by Kent; on the south by East and West Sussex; and on the west by Hampshire.
Surrey is densely populated, particularly in the northeast and along the main commuter road and rail links to London.
Surrey became increasingly residential with the coming of the railway, and many houses by well-known architects were built, such as Goddards, near Dorking, designed by Edwin Lutyens (1898) with a garden by Gertrude Jekyll.
