Camberley

Camberley is the main town and administrative centre of Surrey Heath which incorporates the surrounding villages of Bagshot, Lightwater and West End, has its roots firmly embedded in the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst which has trained every officer the Army has produced for over 200 years, more recently Princes William & Harry. It has grown to be a dynamic, vibrant place to live offering extremely modern facilities whilst still being a welcoming town.

the History of Camberley

Originally called Yorktown, then Cambridge Town, finally Camberley was adopted in 1877 so as not to confuse anyone with Cambridge! Housing started to be built from the train station which is still evident in the late Victorian properties in Upper Gordon Road, Middle Gordon Road and Portesbery Road. Subsequent building from the town centre saw larger, detached houses in roads off Park Road incorporating Tekels Avenue, Brakendale Road, Heathway and Church Hill.
