Woking Palace was the site of a Tudor residence with origins dating back to 13th century. Little survives at the site itself, but this circular walk and free audio guide shares what we know about this once imposing palace. Using the latest research, reconstructions, and results from excavations, this guide by Surrey County Archaeological Unit will shed light on life in Old Woking and Woking Palace 500 years ago.

This 2 mile circular loop will take you around Woking Palace and the surrounding area, starting and finishing at Manor Way Car Park in Old Woking.
