  • The North Downs: the Hog’S Back and Puttenham Vale
    Landscape Character Areas of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) The North Downs: The Hog’s Back and Puttenham Vale Comprising a series of low sandy hills, the Puttenham Vale forms a narrow, enclosed pastoral valley with medium sized fields, thick hedges, woodland, winding lanes and attractive scattered villages. The area is dominated by the spectacular Hog’s Back ridge with small irregular sized fields divided by hedgerows and woodland. The dip slope has a more open and regular field pattern supporting extensive arable farming. The tree-lined Hog’s Back forms a dramatic backdrop to views from an extensive area and affords expansive views out over Surrey’s countryside. The key local AONB features identified Dramatic views of Hog’s Back ridge from wide area, and extensive views northwards from Hog’s Back (eg. Guildford Cathedral and London) Historic parkland with wealth of features (eg. Loseley Park) Attractive villages with traditional cottages, houses and scattered farmsteads (eg. Seale, Puttenham, Compton, Artington) Local landmark buildings and fine churches (eg. Watts Gallery, Watts Memorial Chapel, Loseley House, Greyfriars House, Puttenham church, Compton church) Large open arable fields on dip slope and smaller irregular fields with hedges on scarp slope (Hog’s Back) Species rich semi-ancient natural woodland, shaws and hedgerows Pastoral farmland with scattered farms, square (Parliamentary enclosures) and irregular shaped fields with dense hedgerows (Puttenham Vale). The key local AONB issues identified Impact of traffic on narrow lanes and in villages Impact of urban fringe and suburban pressures Decline in quality of hedgerows and hedgerow trees Impact of mineral extraction and landfill Decline in quality of woodland and loss of beech trees and beech woodland The North Downs: Ranmore and Hackhurst Downs Ranmore and Hackhurst Downs is a densely wooded and sparsely settled area of rolling downland characterised by a gently undulating dip slope with far reaching views towards London.
