Egham Hythe is a historical ward in Egham. It includes two post towns in Surrey. Some of the largest businesses in this part of Surrey can be found in the northern part of this TW8 area. Pooley Green, a large residential area, is in the southern side. Since 1950, the A30 road bypasses the area. The Hythe is a conservation area in Egham Hythe. The name is the Old English word for port. The Swan Inn is one of the local Hythe attractions. Thorpe Hay Meadow is one of the few remaining unimproved grasslands in Surrey.

Back in the day, this West London area was constantly flooded by the River Thames. It was mostly inhabited by shepherds. A few farms were also found here. Thomas de Oxenford built the Egham Causeway to protect Egham Hythe from deluges and flooding. In the 14th century, the High Sheriff of Surrey proclaimed “that all persons, ecclesiastical as well as secular” should contribute to the repair of the causeway. There’s mention of a 15th-century watermill called Trumpes Mill. In the 18th century, Priscilla Edgell was in charge of the manor of Mylton here. In 1766, she married Richard Wyatt. Some local streets are named after them.

Staines Bridge that connects Egham Hythe to Staines was built in 1832 but mentions from the 13th century stand as proof that there were multiple bridges in this area. The oldest was a wooden bridge and it functioned until the Civil War. The bridge featured in Bernard Cornwell’s Enemy of God novel. Egham Hythe is served by the railway stations at Egham and Staines. They were built in the 1850s and that’s when the area saw a population increase. Records mention six private estates here in 1911. An individual parish church was built in 1930. Thorpe Lea School and The Hythe School are local educational facilities.
