Description

Farnham er en markedby i Surrey, England, inden for Borough of Waverley. Byen ligger 35 miles sydvest for London i den ekstreme vestlige del af Surrey, tæt på grænsen til Hampshire. Med bil ligger Guildford 11 miles mod øst, og Winchester yderligere 28 miles langs den samme akse som London. Farnham er den største by i Waverley og en af de fem største byområder i Surrey. Den har historisk interesse med mange gamle bygninger, herunder et antal georgianske huse. Farnham Slot overvåger byen. En kort afstand sydøst for byens centrum ligger ruinerne af Waverley Abbey, Moor Park House og Mother Ludlams Hule. Farnham er venskabsby med Andernach i Tyskland. Den drænes af floden Wey, som kun er navigerbar for kanoer på dette punkt.

Farnhams historie og nuværende status er hovedsageligt resultatet af dens geografi; en kombination af flod, vandløb, ferskvandskilder og varierede jordtyper sammen med et tempereret klima var attraktivt i forhistorisk tid. Geologien i området fortsætter med at påvirke byen, både med hensyn til kommunikation, sceneri og botanisk variation samt de vigtigste lokale industrier inden for landbrug og mineraludvinding. Farnham Geological Society er en aktiv organisation i byen, og Museum of Farnham har en samling af geologiske prøver og fossiler.
