Location
The Hockering Estate was established and developed around 1911 by the renowned local builder WG Tarrant who also developed the nearby St.Georges Hill and Wentworth estates. The majority of the properties within the estate are substantial houses set in large grounds; a designated Conservation Area containing 100 homes, which lies about a mile to the south of Woking's busy centre as well as a one-mile level walk from the mainline railway station with a fast and regular service into Waterloo (from 26 minutes). From the station there is also a regular coach service to Heathrow. London, the south coast and the national motorway network can be reached via the A3 at Guildford, the M3 at Bagshot or the M25 at junction 11 (Chertsey).
When he commenced the development, Walter George Tarrant, one of the best known builders of his time wisely imposed some restrictive covenants that would strongly influence the character of the estate to this day, enabling the Residents Association to exert its influence to the benefit of the properties there. The result is a quiet peaceful oasis with no through traffic, tree lined roads and substantial housing, all within a mile of the station and town centre. There are very good schools in the area, including Hoe Bridge and St. Andrew's in Woking. Further afield is St. George's in Weybridge, Heathfield St. Mary's in Ascot and Charterhouse in Godalming. A public golf course is adjacent to the estate & several other golf courses such as the three W's Woking, Westhill and Worplesdon, along with New Zealand, West Byfleet, Foxhills & Queenwood. Further country clubs within a 3-mile radius include the Hook Heath Lawn Tennis Club and The Horsell and Woking Cricket Club.
