Woking Electricians

Woking, located in Surrey, UK, is a town with a history that dates back to its mention in the Domesday Book of 1086. Initially a modest settlement, Woking’s development accelerated with the arrival of the railway in the 1830s, facilitating its evolution into a bustling commuter town for London.

Woking is perhaps best known for its association with H.G. Wells, who penned “The War of the Worlds” while residing here. The town celebrates this connection with a Martian tripod sculpture in the town centre, paying homage to the novel’s famous Martian invasion of Earth that starts near Woking.

In the 20th century, Woking became a hub for the paper-making industry and later diversified its economy with the development of the McLaren Technology Centre, headquarters of the McLaren Group—known for Formula One and advanced technology.

Today, Woking is recognized for its thriving arts scene, notably at The Lightbox Museum and gallery, which offers various cultural events and exhibitions. The town also features a diverse culinary scene, reflecting its multicultural population. With extensive green spaces like Woking Park and the nearby Horsell Common, residents and visitors enjoy a blend of urban and natural environments. Woking’s blend of historical significance, modern innovation, and cultural diversity makes it a vibrant community within Surrey.
