The village is separated from its neighbours by open land, most of it heath. Much of this surrounding land is owned by the Ministry of Defence, and some is Royal Estate. Bagshot is of Saxon origin, originally in a parish with Windlesham. Coaching inns were the major reason for Bagshot's original prosperity the village is on the main road from London to the West Country , together with a Royal hunting lodge favoured by the Stuart kings now known as Bagshot Park and which is again a Royal residence with its occupation by Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex.
Growth of the village occurred during the first half of the 19th century, largely due to the coaching trade and agriculture, especially market gardening. The opening of the main line railway from London to Southampton and beyond in destroyed the coaching trade with a resultant depression, but the opening of the local railway line 20 years later promoted renewed growth, particularly with the nursery gardens being better able to supply London's Covent Garden market.
Bagshot separated from Windlesham to become its own ecclesiastical parish in and the Church was built 10 years later, largely with the patronage of the Duke of Connaught. St Anne's Church has twice been honoured by a visit from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother , on the first occasion to commemorate the centenary of the building, and more recently to unveil a memorial plaque to Lady Patricia Ramsay Princess Patricia.
There is a three-tier local government structure: Surrey County Council ; Surrey Heath Borough Council and Windlesham Parish Council local government names in rural areas can cause some confusion as a Parish Council is the smallest unit of local government, it is unconnected with the church.
Significant growth has occurred in the size of the village since the 's, and especially since the late 60's. The general area having been earmarked in the national and county strategic plans for growth.
Most of the housing has been built as diverse estates, though none is excessively large and the essential characteristics of a large village have not been destroyed. There is an adequate range of shops centred on the High Street. Perhaps still harking back to Bagshot's coaching origins, there are a surprising number of public houses, restaurants and 'take away' cooked food vendors, a lot of their trade coming from outside the village.
