Cambridge Lodge Park, Bonehurst Road, HORLEY, RH6 8PR

One of many hotels in this area which cater for people travelling via Gatwick Airport.

Originally called Cambridge Lodge, it was built in 1850 by George, 2nd Duke of Cambridge, occupying the site of the former Kings Head public house. It is now a hotel. Primarily due to its historic connections it is grade II listed - see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1028996.

Looking north, with Bonehurst Bridge over the Burstow Stream ahead, the brick parapet shows on the right.

Bonehurst Bridge, the viewpoint, carries the A23.

23 December 2013 saw substantial rainfall in East Surrey as a major storm crossed Southern England. The result was some of the worst flooding in the area for many years taking place on Christmas Eve, particularly around Horley where the clay soil, already saturated from rain a few days earlier, was unable to absorb extra water, resulting in the various streams in the area overflowing, along with the River Mole, with areas close to the river further downstream, such as at Brockham, Pixham, Burford Bridge and Leatherhead, also being successively inundated. All roads between Reigate/Redhill and Horley were blocked by flood water. This is the A23 Bonehurst Road in Horley the following day, where it crosses the Burstow Stream (the bridge in the centre of the photo). The waters here have receded significantly since the previous day, Christmas Eve, when at around 4.00 the whole road was flooded up to beyond the bollard opposite the bus stop, and water could be seen pouring onto the road alongside the bridge parapet, with even the raised centre of the road being flooded to a depth of at least a foot.
