Woodland, Holmwood Common
There is quite a high proportion of 'suburban' species in these woods - trees such as horse chestnut and sycamore - evidence of a chequered history.

Former butcher's shop
The sign over the window has been painted over but the name J. Davies can still be made out. When the shop was still open there was a full-sized fibre-glass figure of a butcher which stood at the side of the A24 - it wore a boater and apron. I believe that this may have always been a butcher's shop - it was during the Second World War http://www.bbc.co.uk/ww2peopleswar/stories/10/a1982810.shtml.

Something of a feature of the A24 at Holmwood the sign over the door says "The Holly & Laurel Emporium". Suppliers of "new and reclaimed Stoves, Fireplaces, Gas Fires, Accessories and Flue Pipes" "together with a wide range of landscape furniture and other items of Architectural Salvage". See their website http://www.dorkingstoves.com for more information. Previously the Laurel and Holly Hotel it also looks a likely candidate for the Sawyers Arms, marked on the 1873 map.
