Surbiton Studios was a British film studio owned by Stoll PicturesBritish film production and distribution company of the silent era, founded in 1920 by Oswald Stoll. in Surbiton, then on the outskirts of London. Situated in the ballroom of Regent House, it opened in 1918, and released its first film in January 1919, Comradeship, starring Gerald Ames and Lily Elsie.^[1][2]

Surbiton’s single-stage studio was soon considered too small for Stoll’s ambitions, and so most of the company’s production was moved to the much larger Cricklewood Studios. Surbiton was rented out to independent producers, but Stoll films continued to be made there occasionally until 1923, when Surbiton was sold to British Instructional Films (BIF).^[2] BIF moved its production to a new purpose-built studio in Welwyn Garden City in 1927. Regent House and its grounds were sold, and the area used for the construction of large new housing estates.^[3]
