Thames Ditton is a suburban village by and on the River Thames, in the Elmbridge borough of Surrey, England. It has a large inhabited island in the river but is otherwise on the southern bank, its centre located 12.2 miles (19.6 km) southwest of Charing Cross in central London, and is a short distance outside the Greater London area. Its clustered village centre and shopping area on a winding High Street is surrounded by housing, schools and sports areas. Its riverside is situated opposite the Thames Path and Hampton Court Palace Gardens and golf course in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Its most commercial area is spread throughout its conservation area and contains restaurants, cafés, shops and businesses. The village is within the Greater London Urban Area as defined by the Office for National Statistics.
Its railway station, one of two on the Hampton Court Branch Line, is 0.31 miles (500 m) from the riverside end of the village centre and the village of Weston Green that hived off from it in 1939. The two other breakaway villages are Claygate and Hinchley Wood and today the only named sub-locality or neighbourhood irrefutably in the village is Giggs Hill, on the road that used to be the main Portsmouth Road from London, but is now a local route, bypassed by long-haul traffic by the A3 to the south and east of Claygate.
Thames Ditton joins Long Ditton and Weston Green in occupying the land between Surbiton, Esher and East Molesey. Although reduced to less than one square mile (2.6 km2), it formerly covered more than four square miles (10 km2).
Thames Ditton has a railway link to London Waterloo, serving the large commuter population, local workforce and Esher college student population. Boyle Farm was the earlier name of the Home of Compassion, a wide range mansion care home by the River Thames formerly set among fields rather than private houses.
Thames Ditton railway station is on the line from London Waterloo to Hampton Court, and Hampton Court railway station is within a ten-minute walk. Rail services are provided by South West Trains. Journey time to London Waterloo is 33 minutes (it is also possible to connect with faster trains at Surbiton railway station).
From Thames Ditton, it is approximately five minutes by road to the A3 (eastbound) or ten minutes to A3 (both ways). It is some 15 minutes to the M3 and M25 and some 35 minutes to Heathrow – these times can be severely affected by racing at Kempton Park Racecourse and/or Sandown Park.

Surbiton is a suburban area of south-west London within the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. Surbiton is situated next to the River Thames, 11.0 miles south west of central London. urbiton was formerly within the County of Surrey, but became part of Greater London in 1965 following the London Government Act 1963, together with many areas including neighbouring Kingston and Richmond. Surbiton possesses a mixture of Art-Deco courts, more recent residential blocks and grand 19th century townhouses blending into a sea of semi-detached 20th century housing estates.
Surbiton railway station opened in 1838, and was originally named Kingston-upon-Railway. It was only renamed Surbiton to distinguish it from the new Kingston railway station on the Shepperton branch line, which opened on 1 January 1869. The present station has an art deco façade. As a result, Kingston is now on a branch line, whereas passengers from Surbiton (smaller in comparison) can reach London Waterloo in about 15 minutes on a fast direct service; as well as places further afield, including Portsmouth and Southampton. It was once home to Surbiton Studios which were owned by Stoll Pictures, before the company shifted its main production to Cricklewood Studios.
Surbiton is served by a number of regular bus services. London Buses routes 71, 281, 406, 418, 465, K1, K2, K3 and K4 and Surrey Bus Routes 514 and 515 all serve the area. Surbiton railway station provides rail links with London (Waterloo), Surrey and Hampshire.
Surbiton station features in the 2009 film version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Blood Prince, with actors Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter and Michael Gambon as Albus Dumbledore. Surbiton is popularly remembered as an icon of suburbia in such British television programmes as The Good Life.

Places to see in ( East Molesey - UK )
Molesey is a suburban district comprising two large villages, East Molesey and West Molesey, just outside the edge of Greater London. Molesey is located on the southern bank of the River Thames in the northeast of the borough of Elmbridge in Surrey, England, with the post town of East Molesey extending north across the Thames into the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.
Molesey lies between 11.7 and 13.5 miles from Charing Cross and forms part of the capital's contiguous suburbs within the Greater London Urban Area. It has the London dialling code (020), and was from 1839 until 2000 under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Police.
East and West Molesey share a high street, and there is a second retail and restaurant-lined street (Bridge Road) close to Hampton Court Palace in the eastern part of the district, which is also home to Hampton Court railway station in Transport for London's Zone 6. Molesey Hurst or Hurst Park is a large park by the River Thames in the north of the area, and is home to East Molesey Cricket Club. The Hampton Ferry runs from here to Hampton on the Middlesex bank, from where it is a short walk to the central area of Hampton.
Molesey is divided into three wards of the United Kingdom: Molesey South, East and North. The majority of Molesey's detached properties are in the east, which also contains the highest proportion of apartments of the three wards.
Molesey is directly south of the River Thames, with several large reservoirs bordering the town to the west and south that provide water within the London Basin. Some of these are now disused and are being converted into nature reserves. To the west lie Bessborough Reservoir and Knight Reservoir, to the north-west Molesey Reservoirs, to the south Island Barn Reservoir, and to the south-west Queen Elizabeth II Reservoir. There are walks beside Metropolitan green belt fields to the south along the river Mole to Esher, and to the west along the Thames Path to Walton-on-Thames.
Hampton Court Palace is immediately north-east of East Molesey across Hampton Court Bridge. The Palace, together with the southern part of Bushy Park and most of Hampton Court Park are in the post town East Molesey. Molesey Lock is just above Hampton Court Bridge, downstream of Sunbury Lock and upstream of Teddington Lock. Cigarette Island Park is just below the bridge, occupying the eastern extremity of the town. Hurst Park is on the south bank of the Thames, from where there is a daily ferry service to Hampton on the Middlesex bank. It once had a horse racing course but no longer does.
Molesey itself has some interesting landmarks, including three listed Church of England churches and The Bell, a public house, formerly known as The Crooked House, built in the mid-15th century. Other Landmarks include The Jubilee Fountain in Bridge Road. There are three designated Conservation Areas in East Molesey. Other historic buildings include the Grade II-listed Matham Manor, an altered 15th-century house with timber frames and red brick; and a 16th-century house, Quillets Royal, with an 18th-century extension (The Manor House). Both buildings lie near The Bell in Bell Road/Matham Road.
There are no permanent traveller sites in East or West Molesey, but there is believed to be a significant settled traveller population in the Field Common area to the south of Molesey Heath and in adjacent Hersham, which featured in the TV series My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding. Elmbridge borough as a whole has also had the equal largest number of illegal traveller sites in Surrey in recent years and the former leader of Elmbridge Council referred to this being a particular problem in Molesey in extensive press coverage of the issue which has become contentious in recent times.
The railway station in East Molesey is Hampton Court railway station in Transport for London's Zone 6, operated by South West Trains. This is the terminus of a stopping commuter service to Waterloo that takes around thirty-five minutes. Principal stops are Surbiton, Wimbledon and Clapham Junction. During the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show extra trains run to and from London.

4K Hampton (London, UK) Car Drive
On this crisp winter's morning the Drive Team took a brief trip to Hampton, in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. You may the know the town for the famous Hampton Court Palace but did you know Alan Turing, famous for breaking the enigma code in World War 2, lived at Ivy House which now has a blue plaque in Hampton High Street between 1945 and 1947.
Towards the end we drive through the grounds of Hampton Court where we capture some great scenes of people out walking and the early signs of spring arriving with park wildlife birds chirping!

Thames Path - Source to London - Shepperton to Mortlake via Hampton Court - Day 10 of 12
Day 10 of 12 of an epic walking adventure through some of England's most beautiful countryside and incredible history. A walk that covers 186 miles from the source of the river in Gloucestershire to the Thames Barrier in the east of London via historic towns of Oxford, Henley and Royal Windsor to name a few.
Saturday 6th April Shepperton to Mortlake Day Ten
The Thames Path Challenge - 184 Mile hike from Source to London - Click on the image to watch the video of day 10 of the hike. An epic adventure
Again up at 7am, leaving Shepperton at 7.45, nice early start. The Path did a strange detour to river and back to road. Then carried on over the bridge. We walked through the pretty Hurst Park, which used to be a race course, and after walking 6 miles arrived in Hampton. Visiting the Five At The Bridge cafe, which being a Saturday morning in London had many cyclists and walkers in.
Walking over the bridge, the very Spectacular Hampton Court Palace comes into view. This is well worth a visit maybe for a day. Make sure you walk through part of the grounds, re-joining the Thames just before the actual Palace is reached. Hampton Court was built for Henry V111 in 1515, and is a very impressive Tudor building.
The river and river bank definitely becomes a lot busier from here on in, and it is lovely to see so many people out enjoying themselves. We carried on past Kingston, to Teddington Lock, the last lock on the Thames. From here the river is tidal, with a rise and fall of between 5-7 meters resulting in some very strong currents, very different from the river upstream of here. From Teddington Lock, the path is on either bank of the Thames, if the North Bank route if taken from The Lock to the Thames Barrier it is 2.5km longer. It is nice to swop banks in order to see the best sites and as there are numerous bridges, it is possible to do this.
We continued along the Southbank past Ham Wetlands, Richmond, and Kew Gardens, to Mortlake. We then caught the train from Mortlake to Clapham junction, and checked into the Travelodge at Battersea for 2 nights. A good plan then the larger rucksack can be left there for a day.
