Hankley Common, Common land in Surrey, England.

Hankley Common extends over 560 hectares of natural terrain, featuring extensive heathland, woodland areas, and numerous walking trails through the landscape.

During World War II, Canadian military forces constructed a training replica of the Atlantic Wall at the Lion's Mouth location for D-Day preparation exercises.

The location serves as a filming site for multiple James Bond productions, including scenes from The World Is Not Enough, Die Another Day, and Skyfall.

The common contains marked paths throughout its grounds, making it accessible for visitors who want to explore the natural environment and observe local wildlife.

The area houses memorial stones marking the spots where occupants of a Puss Moth aircraft perished following a crash in July 1932.
