Tolworth is a
small middle-working class town located in the
London Borough of Kingston in South West or South
London, and not too far from Surrey, as some locals
will say. It has a massive tower at a height of nearly 300ft, it has plenty of takeaway shops, a petrol station, a few supermarkets, a bowling alley, and a Goals. Tolworth is a very Chelsea fan area and up there with massive Chelsea fanbase areas like Ealing, Hounslow, Morden, Mitcham, Woking, Bracknell, Chessington, and Worcester Park! The area has perhaps been a tad looked down on in the past (often by people who have never been there). This is because of two things the
local secondary schools and it previously had the highest crime rate in the Borough of Kingston, and other nearby Boroughs like
Sutton, Merton, and
Richmond. In the last few years, the crime rate has dropped quite a lot, and the local secondary schools have become less hostile, and that has made it more pleasant for the locals, and it has made Tolworth less notorious, and troublesome, and a much more friendly place. It's certainly smartening up, and its innate visual appeal - especially in its older parts - makes it a perfectly pleasant, green little area to live in or visit. Local borough council plans for town center improvements
will provide a further spur towards it realizing its full potential before
long.
Question one: What sort of people would Tolworth appeal to?
-- Those who appreciate
pretty buildings and plenty of green open spaces (such as Alexandra Park and Fishponds Park).
Question
two: How far is it from Charing Cross (The official central point of
London). It is exactly 11 miles from Charing Cross.
