The works we are undertaking will be significant to preserve the future of Rylston. The whole building will benefit from new carbon efficient heating systems and windows and a newly decorated ceremony room, bringing it in line with our Surrey Greener Future standards and ensuring it is a sustainable ceremonies venue for the county in the long term.
Re-decoration works will complement the historic building's elegant style and allow couples to make their vows there for many years to come in a classic and beautiful space.

Location
History of Rylston House
The land in which Rylston is situated on was originally royal hunting grounds at the time of Henry VIII. The house itself was built in 1911. It was purchased by Surrey County Council in 1963 and in 1993 became a Register Office.
It has undergone some structural changes over the years, but the overall exterior of the house has hardly changed. It is a beautiful detached manor house with a large porch at the entrance. The building retains most of its unique features including leaded light windows with original glass and unusual wrought iron fittings. The ground floor retains original oak panelling and fireplaces. The magnificent oak staircase with stained glass windows sweeps down to French windows leading onto the gardens.
