Records for those former parts of Surrey that are now within metropolitan London boroughs (i.e. within Croydon, Kingston-upon-Thames, Lambeth, Lewisham, Merton, Richmond-upon-Thames, Southwick, Sutton or Wandsworth) are held at the London Metropolitan Archives

For records relating to the pre-1888 County of Surrey, it is worth checking out the Minet Library in the Lambeth borough of London. It contains the extensive collection of documents on Surrey bequeathed by the famous antiquarian William Minet
