===Historic bus stop=== Until 2011, the green at the junction of Ewell Road, Red Lion Road and King Charles Road opposite the former Red Lion Public house<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.closedpubs.co.uk/surrey/tolworth_redlion.html|title=Red Lion, Tolworth|work=closedpubs.co.uk}}</ref> was the site of an extremely rare double fronted wooden bus stop,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.francisfrith.com/tolworth/photos/red-lion-gardens-c1965_t263001/|title=Tolworth, Red Lion Gardens c.1965|work=francisfrith.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.surreycomet.co.uk/news/9343912.Transport_history_lost_as_bus_shelter_is_removed/|title=Transport history lost as bus shelter is removed|author=Tom Barnes|work=Surrey Comet|date=5 November 2011 }}</ref> located at the former Tolworth turning point of the 603 trolleybus service, which ceased in May 1962. (It was previously served by trams between 1906 and 1931.) The shelter was removed after [[Transport for London]] decided that it was the only bus stop they were not prepared to maintain, on the basis that it was wooden.
