Export House, Office building in Woking, United Kingdom
Export House is an office building with 18 floors located in Woking's town center, featuring a modular design and a distinctive chamfered west-facing side. The structure rises prominently above surrounding buildings and remains one of the tallest in the area.
The building was completed in 1974 and initially served as the headquarters for British American Tobacco before the company relocated to London in 1997. Following this move, the structure underwent refurbishment and attracted new occupants.
The building's narrow, angled west face gives it an unusual profile among the town's structures, making it stand out when viewed from different angles around the center.
The building is easily accessible from various points in the town center and offers parking for visitors and staff. Its location in the downtown area makes it straightforward to reach on foot and near other local amenities.
The building was long considered the tallest structure in Surrey after its completion until a taller development was built nearby years later. This former distinction gives it a particular place in the area's building history.
