Egham, Historical town in Runnymede, England

Egham extends along the River Thames, featuring Victorian architecture on Queen's Road and traditional English streets lined with local businesses.

The town's first written record appears in the year 666, while the Domesday Book of 1086 listed it as Egeham under Chertsey Abbey's control.

The Egham Royal Show brings together agricultural displays, local crafts, and community performances each August in the town center.

The railway station provides direct connections to London Waterloo, Reading, and Windsor, with trains running every 30 minutes throughout the day.

The Air Forces Memorial on Cooper's Hill commemorates over 20,000 Commonwealth air force personnel who died during World War II.
