Surrey, co. in SE. of England, bounded N. by the
Thames, which separates it from Bucks and Middlesex,
E. by Kent, S. by Sussex, W. by Hants, and NAY. by
Berks; greatest length, N. and S., 26 miles; greatest
breadth, E. and W., 40 miles; area, 485,129 ac., pop.
1,436,899. The co. is traversed from E. to W. by the
North Downs range, from which the surface slopes
gently down towards the Thames on the N., while on
the S. it descends into an extensive flat plain (partly
also in the cos. of Kent and Sussex) called the AYeald.
Except a small portion in the SW., and another small
portion in the SE., the whole of the co. is drained by
the Thames and its tributaries, the AYey, Mole, and
AYandle. There are many varieties of soil, including
plastic and alluvial clays, rich vegetable loam, calcare-
ous earth, and almost barren heath. On the plastic
clays the crops are wheat and beans; the alluvial soils,
particularly in the vicinity of the metropolis, are chiefly
occupied by orchards, market gardens, and farms for
the culture of medical and aromatic plants; on the
loamy soils the crops are barley, oats, and pease, carrots
and parsnips ; while the chief products of the calcare-
ous soils are hops and clover. (For agricultural
statistics, see Appendix.) There are some industries
in oil, paper, calicoes, woollen goods, <fcc., and those
places situated on the Thames share in the trade of the
port of London, but (except in that part of the co. in-
cluded within the limits of the metropolis) the trade
and mfrs. are not of great importance. The amenities
of climate and scenery, the vicinity of the metropolis,
and the complete means of railway communication,
have caused many parts of Surrey to be studded over
with mansions and villas. The co. contains 14
