Concentrated into a small area of South East England in East Surrey, there exists a great variety of underground features. Some are natural, but most are man-made. There are mines for building stone, hearthstone, sand, fullers earth and chalk. Wartime tunnels, cellars, and underground follies add to the variety. This book describes these fascinating sites, and explains how they were created, how they have since been used for other purposes, and why they are still important places that should not be forgotten and neglected.
