South Holmwood - is a semi-rural village in Surrey, England. It can be considered cognate to its wider civil parish that stretches to the east to embrace Holmwood Common however does not include Mid Holmwood, nor North Holmwood which is contiguous with Dorking. Betchett's Brook is the southern boundary of the area and runs through a small locality known as Holmwood Corner. Reflecting Victorian naming of a railway station, Holmwood railway station is squarely within the parish of Capel but connected to the village by a curved path passing through Holmwood Corner Common. Centred south of Dorking, South Holmwood is on the A24 London to Worthing road, a dual carriageway through the village. ==Geography== Holmwood forms part of Mole Valley Borough Council's area; the main settlement is a clustered small area bypassed by the A24 road. The smaller settlement of Holmwood Corner is half within the district but that part beyond Betchett's Brook is considered to be part of Beare Green, which is also convenient to the railway station, see Transport. A country path, with a footbridge across the brook runs between the houses in Holmwood Corner, to the station at the end of Bregsell's Lane (running underneath the A24 and railway line) this forms a gentle curve through Holmwood Corner Common. A pavement on the opposite side of the dual carriageway feeds into a footpath that runs by the parish church (an Anglican church)〔(Holmwood St Mary Magdalene ) The Church of England Retrieved 2013-11-29〕 to similarly connect South Holmwood's main cluster of residential streets. Moor Cottage, South Holmwood, was the birthplace of the novelist E. Arnot Robertson (1903–1961).〔(Cambridge University Press ).
