Tranquil waterway running for nearly 20 miles through the heart of Surrey.
The Wey was one of the first British rivers to be made navigable, and opened to barge traffic in 1653.
This 15-mile waterway linked Guildford to Weybridge on the Thames, and then to London.
The Godalming Navigation, opened in 1764, enabled barges to work a further four miles upriver.
