Frimley Green

Frimley Green

Frimley Green is a large village in Surrey, South East England, UK, close to the border with Hampshire. It is close to the towns of Camberley and Frimley, with the nearest major town being Guildford, approximately 10 miles (16 km) away.

Frimley Green, as with many English villages, is named after the central village green. It is fairly large in size, and has remained unchanged for many years. Frimley Lodge Park is located between Frimley Green and Mytchett. The Basingstoke Canal runs alongside the park. It contains several large playing fields, a wooded area with an activity trail and unusually, a miniature railway.

Lakeside Country Club is also situated in the village, and has hosted the British Darts Organisation’s (BDO) World Professional Darts Championship each January since 1986. This annual event is broadcast by the BBC in the UK and by SBS in the Netherlands.

The nearest train stations are Frimley, Ash Vale, Farnborough North and Farnborough (Main) (the train line from Farnborough to London Waterloo runs through part of the village).

The main schools are Frimley CofE and Cross Farm infant school.
