Hankley Common, Common land in Surrey, England.
Hankley Common is a natural area in Surrey, England, covering heathland, woodland, and open ground. It offers walking routes through different terrain types that visitors can explore at their own pace.
During World War II, Canadian troops used the site to practise military operations and built training structures. These remnants of wartime activity remain part of the landscape today.
The common's heathland attracts visitors interested in observing native birds and wildlife throughout the year. Local people value this space as a retreat where they can walk freely across open ground without barriers.
Marked paths help visitors navigate the terrain, though some areas require steady footing and appropriate footwear. Plan visits with the weather in mind, as conditions can vary across different parts of the site.
The site served as a filming location for major film productions, with its landscape providing a versatile backdrop. The natural setting made it attractive for large-scale production work.
