About Weybridge
Town in Surrey, England

Weybridge is a town in the Borough of Elmbridge in Surrey, England, around 17 mi (27 km) south-west of central London. The settlement is recorded as Waigebrugge and Weibrugge in the 7th century and the name derives from a crossing point of the River Wey, which flows into the River Thames to the north of the town centre. The earliest evidence of human activity is from the Bronze Age. During the Anglo-Saxon and medieval periods, Weybridge was held by Chertsey Abbey. In 2011 it had a population of 15,449.

Does Weybridge flood?

Ordnance Survey places 43 postcodes in Weybridge in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset (Risk of Flooding from Rivers and Sea). Each postcode is counted once, under the worst band any of its properties reaches; together they hold 562 properties in the EA dataset's likelihood bands.

This dataset covers flooding from rivers and the sea only — one of five flood sources. Surface water, groundwater, sewers and reservoirs are assessed separately, so a postcode missing from it is not proof that a place cannot flood. The band describes the land around properties (allowing for defences), not any single address and not today's conditions.

The watercourse nearest Weybridge

Two mapped watercourses are about the same distance from the middle of Weybridge's gauges: the River Wey (about 50 m) and the River Thames (Hamhaugh Point) (about 90 m), so this page cannot say which one is nearer to you.

Distances along the river are from the point on each watercourse nearest the middle of Weybridge's gauges. From Ordnance Survey’s river map (OS Open Rivers), which leaves out small streams, ditches and culverts, so a nearer one may exist. This describes where water goes on the map; it says nothing about flooding at any address. Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2026.
