- Woking is a large town and civil parish that shares its name with the surrounding local government district, located in the west of Surrey, England. It is a dormitory town in the London commuter belt and is located 23 miles (37 km) south west of Charing Cross in central London. Woking town itself, excluding the surrounding district, has a population of 62,796, and the civil parish, which covers part of the urban area inclusive of Sheerwater and Knaphill, has a population of 30,403. This population is different from the local government district,, which has an approximate population of 90,700 (2006 estimate). Woking also plays a role in literature: it is the town in which the Martians first land in H. G. Wells' science fiction novel The War of the Worlds. It also features in Douglas Adams's The Meaning of Liff, as the word for when you go to the kitchen but forget why.
- Woking ist eine Stadt mit etwa 90.000 Einwohnern im Westen der Grafschaft Surrey in England. Zu ihren bekanntesten Persönlichkeiten zählen die hier geborenen Musiker Paul Weller, Bruce Foxton und Rick Buckler, deren Band The Jam zu den erfolgreichsten der britischen Musikgeschichte zählt; sowie Billie Davis und Rick Parfitt, Gitarrist und Sänger von Status Quo. Ferner lebten hier Herbert George Wells einige Jahre, der Woking zum Schauplatz seines bekannten Romans Krieg der Welten machte und Ethel Smyth. Woking ist außerdem die Heimat der McLaren-Firmengruppe und damit u.a. des bekannten Formel 1 Rennstalls McLaren. Hier wurde ferner der im 19. Jahrhundert weit bekannte Architekt und Eisenbahnbauunternehmer Sir Samuel Morton Peto 1809 geboren, der auch in Deutschland wirkte.

A mediados del siglo XX era una ciudad eminentemente industrial, pero poco a poco y a partir de los años 60 se fueron revitalizando el comercio y los servicios en la ciudad, coincidiendo con el desarrollo urbanístico y poblacional. Woking se hizo célebre porque el escritor H.G. Wells, vivió allí y ambientó en ella el comienzo de su novela La Guerra de los Mundos a finales del siglo XIX, cuando el primer cilindro marciano se estrelló en las afueras de la población para iniciar desde ese punto la terrorífica invasión. Son naturales de Woking el músico Paul Weller y el resto de componentes del grupo de rock de finales de los años 70 y primeros 80 The Jam. Además, esta ciudad es sede del equipo de fórmula 1 McLaren-Mercedes
