More about this scene
Not only lime but also some building stone was formerly quarried in the huge Betchworth chalk pit. It had its own narrow gauge railway, which is visible here. The quarry once belonged to Sir Benjamin Brodie, Royal surgeon to Queen Victoria and president of the Royal College of Surgeons.
