Betchworth

Betchworth is a village nestled between Reigate and Dorking at the foot of the North Downs, surrounded by farmland and woodland. Walking paths wind through the area alongside the River Mole, connecting different parts of the settlement.

Records of the place appear in the Domesday Book of 1086, showing it has roots in medieval times. St Michael's Church dates from the 12th century and stands as evidence of long-term settlement in the area.

The place is shaped by the Goulburn Estate, which continues traditional farming and influences village life. Community activities blend rural heritage with contemporary gatherings that define how residents use their surroundings.

The village has a post office, community shop, and traditional pubs that serve daily needs. Visitors can explore natural walking routes and experience the quiet rural setting at their own pace.

St Michael's Church appeared in the 1994 film 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and gained attention from cinema fans around the world. This connection to a well-known British movie draws visitors interested in film locations.
