Welcome to Chertsey's Townpage

Once the location of a fine abbey which was destroyed by the Danes, Chertsey is an attractive town on the River Thames. A splendid seven-arched bridge crosses the river, and provides one of the many points of interest in this historic town. St Peters Church is home to the local legend of Blanche Heriot - who saved her lover’s life by hanging from the bell so that curfew which signaled his execution could not be rung - and dates back to before the 13th century. Abraham Cowley, the noted poet, lived in Chertsey for two years.

Just outside the town is the popular attraction Thorpe Park, which is a great place to spend a day having fun.
