Oil exploration site entrance, Horse Hill
Horse Hill was the original Brighton Road, before the more direct route (now the A217) was built, itself superseded by the current A23 in 1818.
In 2015, the name received prominence following the announcement that a trial drilling off Horse Hill had suggested the existence of between 50bn and 100bn barrels of oil under an area of the Weald Basin in Surrey and East and West Sussex, and whilst it was likely that only a small proportion could be readily recovered, it could still provide a significant proportion of the UK oil needs for a period. However subsequent reports have tried to downplay the news, over concerns of commercial viability of the find.
This is the entrance to the exploration site, off Horse Hill. For closer view see Image
